I recommend Carbotech Pads, and no I'm not affiliated with the company, but for my street pads, I only run them on my vehicles. Drastically reduced brake dust, didn't notice any loss of performance or increase in heat from spirited driving.
Running the R1 concept with ceramic pads now and have no issues. They bite a lot better then the stock setup I had on it before.
I love the Carbotech 1521 pads on my E60 M5. Excellent bite and modulation, never gotten fade when bombing around mountain roads, and significantly less dust than the stock Textar pads. Not zero dust, but I'd say 80% - 90% less.
I have run them for years on my ‘05 Malibu v6 and they have been great on track.
When I was really into AX the best combo I found (and what I still run for the last 6 years) is Carbotech 1521 front Carbotech AX6 back
Carbotech xp10 + steel rotors. Sooooooo damn good. They’re track only pads and will squeal very loud if they’re cold, I recommend getting them prebedded if you can’t bed them on a track.
I recommend Carbotech brake pads. Expensive af but last twice as long and are better than just about any other pads out there.
I bought the r1 concept rotors+brake pads. They look great and have lasted for about a year no issue at all. Good quality
I keep XP8’s on my track/weekend car full time. For me, the noise is annoying when I’m driving through town or in a parking lot because people look at me like my car is broken.
Red doesn\u2019t have much dust. Same with green. I don\u2019t recommend the R1 concepts sport pads. They are very dusty. Almost worse than stock. Bite and feel is good though.
