Brake pads Carbotech or TRW
I’ve used carbotech XP10 for years because it’s the only pad that has never had any of these kinds of problems. Also also swapped between 1521 and XP10 seamlessly. The only time I had a problem like this was when I used some very cheap rotors that couldn’t handle the track abuse, you could actually see the rotor surface getting pitted. Yours look fine by comparison.
For my GR86 Carbotech XP10s have been amazing on the track, seriously no complaints at all. The XP10s with Castrol SRF have been a great combo and held up really well even on some really big/high speed tracks. I swap in my OEM pads when I’m not tracking the car for awhile. It’s not great because I have to bed the pads every time I change them. Once I’m through the OEM pads I’m going to get the Carbotech 1521’s for the street, that way like you mentioned I think I can avoid having to avoid bedding my brakes with every change. The XP10’s function well on the street but they feel a little rough if not up to temp and they are insanely loud.
I personally use Carbotech XP10 for track and Stoptech Sport pads for street on the same rotors
Am placute și discuri trw de vreo 4 ani și aproape 100.000 km. Nu au scârțâit niciodată și la cum conduc eu sunt sigur că mai țin încă pe atât.
"TRW LUCAS MCB54" organics are great. I am currently riding the "EBC FA29V Semi Sintered" but the bite point isn't as good as the TRW.
I had Carbotech XP12 before and they're were great, but squealed like a pig on the street. I haven't tracked the Dynamic Friction but aggressive street even on V730 & daily driving, they've been great.
Io ho messo le pastiglie TRW Dtec Cotec al posteriore e mi trovo bene le metterò anche davanti appena posso , me ne hanno parlato bene anche per quanto riguarda polveri e residui
I use Carbotech xp10 in the front, xp8 in the rears. Love them. Semi heavy car but they feel great the entire weekend. They are very loud on street though
TRW Ceramic Pads: Good for city driving, almost not dust, would not recommend for any track
I tried the carbotech 1521 to try to get silent street pads with better bite but no dice, it’s the same as the OEM akebonos
