Brake Pad Manufacturer (F/R): Carbotech / Project Mu
Caliper (F/R): Stock
Rotor Size (F/R - IE OEM or specify): Stock
Compound (F/R): XP10 / HC+ 800
Tires: 235 Nitto NT05, then 225 BFG Rival
Feedback: My first set of XP10's lasted 6 track days, now on my second set. Pretty happy with them. Initial hot bite feels immediate and fairly strong, but easily modulated. I only get minor fade after 2-3 hard laps in intermediate and advanced HPDE groups. They don't wear the rotors much, but seem to get pretty hot based on the heat checking I'm seeing. There is some smear on the outer edges of the rotors, so I will step up to XP12's next.
Note - dust levels are moderately high and there is a light but constant squeal when braking on the street.
Scores:
Dusting (1=high-10=low): 8
Cold bite (1=low-10=high): 6
Hot bite (1=low-10=high): 8
Modulation (1=low-10=high): 7
Noise (1=extremely loud-10=quiet): 5
Pad Lifespan (1=short-10=long): 4
Does the brake dust with this combination damage the wheels/paint if not cleaned immediately? (Y/N) No
