One of the best pads...?

[The Seer]

Dixcel Carbon Type Z.

Anyone know or heard of these? Apparently they're rather good.

Anybody using them?

 

[MarkCup]

Never heard of them.

Who says they're good?

Presumably they're available for Clios?

Where from?

 

[Charlieboy]

I'm having the Mintex 1144 fitted on my Cup right about now.

carbon lorraines i'll never use another pad

 

[Fred@BTM]

[geesus69]

^you should!

[mini_nick]

Im very happy with my ferodo ds2500's - having said that ive not tried any other pads!

I have heard they are very good and aggresive but apparently they spark a lot, which in turn destroys your wheels and paint

they don't last, when i tested out CL's years ago they lasted 3hours and were dead (granted the abuse they got was 100 times worse than anything a cliosporter would give them)

PF is the only pad that didn't fail my testing!

interesting

i cant comment either way yet, but i am willing to try numerous pads until i find the right one for me

i think thats something people tend not to think about when buying brakes/tyres/suspension, its very difficult to say what is the best product, one persons good will be not so good to another with a totally different driving style. i think people should just try stuff for themselves rather than asking whats the 'best', not a dig at anyone, but there is no 100% right answer.

"Horses for courses" is the phrase you're looking for I think lol

however i am appealing to all levels of intelligence by explaining what i mean as above :rasp:

 

[MarkCup]

I'll give in to Fred's little pearls of wisdom once my CLs are dead - got to give the PF97s a try.

 

[Fred@BTM]

I would have thought that the PF97s are a bit extreme for daily use, unless you drive everywhere like you stole it lol

I've not driven on them though so am only going off what other people have said

Personally I'd recommend the Pagid Blues - very happy with mine

Bites as good as standard from cold, never fades, has a nice consistent 'feel' so gives you confidence :evil:
