I just put on some Endless MX72s. But they are for performance street and occasional track use. And they are not cheaper or probably less noise. But I do expect a great deal better wear with them than stock.
Second the recommendation for the Carbotech 1521 compound, good choice for the street.
I've had very good results using Carbotech pads. Their street pad compount 1521 is comparable to OEM but without the brake dust and their various XP track pads have been very consistent and predictable.
I have the 1521’s, and will add another data point - less initial bite, great modulation. No dust, No noise. Overall I’m happy with them, but will continue to experiment - next round of braking components - floating/2 piece rotors and new calipers.
I have used the Carbotech 1521 pads for a while and have been very satisfied. They are also made in the USA.
Not cheap, but Endless makes perfect street pads that last a long time, are quiet, very little dust, good cold bite, and high coefficient of friction and heat range.
I bought some Endless SS-Y's from FR-sport and they're way better than the stock pads in every way. They don't even cause dust.
Received the brake pads today. They look pretty massive.
I had a set of the Carbotech fast road/track day pads in my AW11 before I had to scrap it and they were amazing.
Driving with the Carbotech 1521(front) for 3 weeks,now. They,definitely,don't have the OEM grasp and power. For everyday driving, they're ok, however... The big plus,no dust,no dust at all.
