I was wondering how it changed toe on the rear also. I can understand it on the front when you have the camber change fighting against the track rods etc but my (very) small brain cant work it out for the rear!

Turns out, this 197 could actually have been a 200...

Top marks for Frogjam! Ordered yesterday and they are here now, great price too!

Yes, I was just looking at this, they are similarly priced to the CL's. May well give them a shot unless the DS1.11's can be had cheaper than I have found.

Where have you found this? I found the RC6's for £200 per set. I can only find the 1.11's at £300 and they dont seem to be in stock anywhere.

Totally get the added value of the DS1.11's and I will go that way in the future but they just aren't in my budget right now.

OK, it doesn't seem that the CL's are worth the extra with the shorter life time and wet issues. The DS1.11 pads are on my list but they are a bit pricey for me right now, I have read very good things about them though.

This is good info. So one of my concerns was how badly they would wear. I'm getting around 3 track days to a front set of the PBS's but that's only at Blyton Park. Did you have any issues with wet track days with the CL's? I see that Kam mention that they need extra mainantence after getting wet.

Does anyone have any track experience with both types of pad? So far, I have been using the ProRace pad's but I dont think the set that I have now will last a full day at Cadwell. Are the RC6's a worth while upgrade? How long do they last by comparison?

Why do you say the Evol ones are junk? Did you hear of any issues with them?

Mines not out too often but I am in that area! Was it you in the 197?

Just wondered if it's anyone here. 6pm leaving Randall Park Way.

The Evol ones are rubber but they say there are 2 different versions (road and Track).

I have the Evol mounts. As above, they are easy enough to fit and the quality seems good but in my experience they add a lot of vibration and noise. I do have the stiffer version though and mine is basically track only at this stage. It was certainly less harsh with the OEM Mounts with insert.

I used Carbon Collective's Platinum Wheels ceramic on a set of new 2118's that are used for track only. It was easy enough to apply and I've done 3 or 4 track days at Blyton on them and the brake dust comes off easily. Overall its been on them for 7 months and is still going strong.
