Brake pads Ferodo or WAGNER
Ferodo DS2500 and PFC 11 are the two best dual duty pads I’ve used. Both are low dust and noise, but the PFC handles a little more heat.
I found ferodo ds uno to be great for track and fine for roads.
I’m using Brembo brake discs and Ferodo brake pads.
Pads (Ferodo ds1.11 is what i started out with)
I switched to Ferodo DS2500 earlier this year and like them a little more.
I just checked my maintenance notes and for my car I bought brake pads for $18.98 for the front set. They were Wagner OEX closeout and they are still going fine at 30,000 miles.
I like the Ferodo DS2500 for street/canyons, tho I find they’re pretty dusty.
Oem is expensive and are dealer items, and quality aftermarket brakes are readily available. Look for raybestos or Wagner brands for domestic vehicles, ebc for European vehicles. And there is no need for oem wear parts
Street driving on the 3.12 killed my AP rotors, so I got a set of DS2500 to swap between track and street. I used the 2500s on track and they wear out fast with the heat, but you can definitely occasionally track on them.
I had this after replacing mine with shit Wagner pads.
It never improved - had to change them out.
