anybody using StopTech Street pads?
 

Looking for some new pads to replace OEM and go with the new rotors I ordered. Anybody using these:

StopTech Pads

:beer05:

Yes, I'm using the StopTech 309 street pad right now with oem rotors..
They're not bad, I'd say slightly better bite than oem.
I've run 3 lapping days with them plus a week down at the Tail of the Dragon and never experienced any fade.
They squeal lightly when outside temps are below 20 degrees celcius until they're warmed up.

I'm upgrading to Porterfield R4-1 pads when I get my Racing Brake BBK with 2-piece rotors front and rear.
I'm looking forward to those.😋

I have these on the rear. They grab a bit harder than the previous pads to the point where it starts to feel unbalanced in the rear. They also create incredibly large amounts of dust with minimal driving.

Well I ordered the pads..I am running R1 ELine slotted/cross drilled when these new pads come in. Hopefully they won't be terrible and I'll be able to share a positive experience with you guys.

I've actually been debating between these and HPS. Good to see some reviews on these.

I still say they create way too much dust for street use. I only have them on the rear and my rear wheels turn black long before the fronts.

I'll agree that they do dust a little more than oem but most pads that are more aggressive, even if only slightly more aggressive, are going to dust more. I wouldn't say it's way more dust though.

So I finally have these installed and must say I love them. They offer a better feel, at least to me, then the OEM pads and they do generate a little more dust. Grab some spray wax and keep the wheels coated and you'll be fine. I find myself cleaning the wheels once a week and applying a new coat of wax with no issue.
