Consider Project Mu Club Racers. They’re not the most aggressive pads but hold up decently well on track depending on your pace and are surprisingly streetable.
For normal driving I'd recommend either ATE Ceramic pads, paired with ATE, painted or coated discs.
Get Ate ceramic. never (almost never) have to wash your wheels again
Brakes and hoses ATE.
I also suggest you to buy ATE or TRW pads, because cheap stuff might squeak.
Pretty happy with my PMU 999s. They’re a step down from csgs but so much cheaper even with tariffs on imports.
If you’ve still got UFO fronts the part number for pads is ATE 602847 (13.0460-2847.2)
Meiner Erfahrung nach bremst das genauso gut wie andere Bremsen, das Problem ist nach 10tkm sportlicher Fahrweise sind Bel\u00e4ge und Scheiben leer, normale Fahrweise max 20tkm. Felgen Kohlschwarz weil nat\u00fcrlich mega viel Bremsstaub in kurzer Zeit.
We use ATE here in Germany. Rear brake pads will probably require a diagnostic device to disengage the electrical parking brake.
Hatte mal teure ATE Bremsen die sofort verrostet sind. Nie wieder.
