First question is are all 4 piston and 6 piston brake pads the same size?


Second, I do a lot of running my car over mountain roads and a dozen or so track days a year, and love the grip my pads give me. But I also DD my car as well. Does anyone have any suggestions for a pad that you like that's not very dusty?


Any help is appreciated, thnx in advance.....
Your answer will be answered a little quicker by the vendor you purchased from regarding pad fitment since the rest of us don't know exactly what calipers you're running. AP Racing makes hundreds of calipers so you're going to have to provide some additional details to allow the rest of us to help you out.

Dust is a function of performance. If it's high performance and low dust, it means something else is wearing down. Something has to give. Everything is a compromise.
