vs
Brake pads ENDLESS or DIXCEL
Me20, expensive but lasts a while even on heavier cars, and almost no squeal on street
Pros: lasts a while, almost no squeal
Cons: expensive
If they’re readily available? Dixcel is for us the perfect blend of track/street usage. Dixcel S, or Dixcel Z if you can live with the little squeak.
Pros: good track/street blend
Cons: slight squeak
Mods:
* Endless ME-20 track pads
Vehicle:
BMW M2
How is the brake dust with the Endless pads?
I just swapped to Endless ME20 for my non-daily, but it's not obnoxiously loud, I could see myself daily driving it.
Pros: not obnoxiously loud, suitable for daily
Vehicle:
BMW
I run Endless SS-Y’s on the street, and have never had to clean brake dust off my wheels even when running white ones. They’re fantastic
Pros: fantastic, low brake dust
Dixcel M-Type are the least dusty street pad I've ever used. A little pricey and straight from Japan, but they aren't kidding when they advertise "ultra low dust". Have about 1500 miles on them so far and they're great on the street and for the occasional togue/mountain days.
Pros: ultra low dust, great street
Cons: a little pricey
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Mileage: 2414 km
I use endless me20's on my FL5. i've had no issues with it on the street, and is obviously a very very good track pad primarily. if you're fine with a little squeal, these are good imo.
Pros: very good track pad
Cons: a little squeal
Vehicle:
Honda
I'm now on Endless ME20 pads, and they last longer, but still only about 20 sessions in the front. Rears are lasting maybe 2-3X as long. So I'm guessing that I am just overheating the fronts and getting above their happy temps. These pads are much harder on the rotors as well, and hard to get affordably in the USA.
Pros: last longer
Cons: overheating fronts, hard on rotors, hard to get affordably
Vehicle:
Porsche
Tune is pointless for NA in terms of power figures you'll feel the difference a bit but power wise you won't make enough to justify the cost, upgrade the brakes tbh, you get good options from dixcel.
Pros: feel the difference a bit
Cons: power wise not enough
