Have you considered any other makes?

I highly recommend and use Carbotech

Thanks Lawsy,

I'm up for trying the carbotech.
What's the main difference?
Like the feel of the pagids and how they last/ good to discs etc.

Had looked at quest mead before, thought it was only for traders?

I am also needing new rear pads, was going to get RS29's again for the same reasons, they seem to be kinder to discs than most 'race' pads. Are all rear ap's the same? I know where are 2 different versions of the fronts. My calipers don't seem to have any part numbers on them...

I know there are different sizes of calipers, front or back not sure.
I'd like to know what I've got and how to find out as well.

Is that why your car looks a bit unstable under braking

If its genuinely like that let me know, your in car camera at Spa would be no good though as I was too far ahead for it

It did snatch at the back a little, that was with xp10 front and rear. So I went 12 front 10 rear for Spa/ring, it did seem a little more composed.

It always felt Ok to me, but others watching commented on how it seemed twitchy, thats why I staggered set-up.

Shitty Alcons you see
