Strongly thinking about the Carbotech AX-6 pad. Someone said it a while back, but I think he is rather forgettable.

What about axxis ultimates?


ULTs are rated for ambient to 900F. Similar to Hawk HP+, Porterfield R4S, etc.

I had a set of ULTs on my 1.6 Miata. They worked well, but the car was pretty slow and easy on brakes.

I'll use these as my rain setup in GA, if need be. As Mcarp mentioned, they remind me of the HP + pads in terms of feel and friction. Like most pads in this category, they dust quite a bit and squeal on light braking.

I figure when them or the pads wear out,but new rotors again...no turning them.


Brembo blanks are around $100/pair. I usually run those with the AD22's. The part is too important to cheap out on, IMO.


Edit: fixed my wording for the "challenged" people in this thread.

^^ You are wasting valuable dollars on those brembo blanks

Willwood's 11" floating rotors costs less . I keep forgetting how expensive stock equipment parts are

I read it 2x, just to make sure I was reading right. Not much of a difference, but 90<100.
