Keethos 842 Report post Posted December 30, 2015 Cool, let us know how you get on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gringosteve 213 Report post Posted December 30, 2015 All fitted, too early for a review as they are not bedded in. A few things worth noting if you are moving from OEM pads 1) They don't come with shims. You can reuse the OEM shins, easy with the rear pads as they clip off. Front shims are glued on so need to be prized off.. No big issue 2) My annoying squeal at low speed has gone!!! 3) My mechanic remarked how good they look, especially the sintered surface 4) one of the rear pads was missing the low pad warning device, again no big issue.. But a bit random Can't wait to bed them in!!! 2 Keethos and Foulsmell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gringosteve 213 Report post Posted February 25, 2016 Very well! I am fully bedded in and happy with the performance. Braking force is easily controllable and have heard no squeak. My OEM pads squeaked all the time. I seem to get a little more dust than with OEM, but nothing concerning. 2 Burn!

Gringosteve 213 Report post Posted July 2, 2016 Still no squeal and the discs are wearing well and even. Very impressed and so much cheaper than OEM _____________________________________ www.tuned.org.uk 2 Burn! Motorsport and Foulsmell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New stock will be here in about 10 days and Z types are on shelf 4 hours ago, KevinA said: What would you consider your fast road / track pad to be. Z type for true street/circuit pad ES a great for fast road but we have many people that do use them on the track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
