Brake Pads ?

Down to about 3mm now . Can anyone recommend a type of pad for my 06 exige seems to be a lot of choice .

Road use and intend to do some track days ?

Pagid 42’s or Performance Friction - depends on how much road Versus how much track.

42’s tend to be a good fast road pad with occassional track - the PF’s are more suited to predominantly track use

Avoid Cabon Lorraine CL5+. I have previously posted about my problems with 4 pot front pads, & I’ll shortly be posting disturbing news of the rears which were fitted at the same time as the aforementioned fronts! I’m not happy!!!



Whoo don’t say it on Seloc or Yvo will shout at you :crazy:

Pagid RS42’s would be best for your use, I have never heard a bad word about them :slight_smile:

I really don’t give a shit what anyone else thinks - the pics will say it all! The problem only came to light yesterday afternoon - the shitters were immediately replaced enabling me to enjoy today in North Yorks with the Nyloc crew

i’ve been running SBS pads for past 12 months, incl 2 track days. they have been faultless so far, got some judder towards end of track days but think thats down to discs rather than the pads?? much stronger than oem, but this is the only 2 types i’ve run. not to bad on deposits on the wheels either.

hth but it proberbly just confuses a bit more :slight_smile:

I know Dad, nor do I. Thats why I always end up in trouble :smiley:

bet it was pad delamination? Heard about it with the CL5 before
PF all the way for me on track and for road use 42’s if mine ever did more than driving to and from track, but beware hard use on track will kill them :wink:

So what happened with the rears? I put some on recently so I’m keen to know!

I’ll take some pics tomorrow - didn’t get home until 6.30pm this evening, after being away from midday on Friday - Donny yesterday with Chevron & Thommo (whilst the Edwards Boyz did a fab job on my car), then N. Yorks all day today :wink:

Very concerned at what you showed me today Rob - I’ll be sticking with the Pagids

Let’s be 'avin it then.
Running RC5+'s. Second set and down to 2mm on the back so need replacing.
I must say I’ve been pleased with them.

RS42’s for road and occasional track use

PF’s for predominantly track use.

Thanks for all the info
