Stoptech street performance. Probably worse than stock but still plenty for street/autocross and a lot less dusty
Pros: less dusty, plenty for street
Cons: worse than stock
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Stoptech 309 and Endless MX72/CCRG pads. They were great for my beginner's pace on the track. Obviously once I started pushing it more, you'll find the limits of the pad.
Pros: great for beginner's pace
Cons: limits when pushing more
I run StopTech Sport pads on my street M3 for the days I want to give demo laps to my students on days I'm instructing and don't want to do deal with the track car. They work totally fine for both.
Pros: work totally fine
Vehicle:
BMW
I'm partial to StopTech Sports
Pros: preferred choice
Stoptech sports are the best dual use pad I’ve used…they’re great for fast street driving and they last.
Pros: great for fast driving, they last
I ended up buying stoptech all around and they lsst a twice longer and have a better bite for street use.
Pros: last longer, better bite
Stoptech Sport 309 pads are all I need on my stock power car.
Pros: all I need
Vehicle:
Mazda
I went to Stoptech Street pads at 35k miles on the fronts only, took care of the issue after a few bed-in runs. Still no shudder at 75k and original rotors
Pros: took care of issue
Mileage: 120700 km
Grimmspeed MCB, STOPTECH Sport package (pads, rotors, lines) and the GR86 Shock/Strut retrofit.
