Pad recommendations for AP Racing

david_h · 01-10-2011, 02:26 PM

I have the usual 6 pot AP racing upgrade on the front of my M3 and am currently running Pagid RS29's with an upgraded Performance Friction disk.

I don't do any track days, although I do a reasonable amount of fast road driving. The problem with the Pagids is I'm just not able to get enough heat into them, and they dust like crazy. I'd like to change them before winter arrives as this is my only car.

As far as I can see I have 3 choices having read around this forum:

1.) Pagid RS14's
2.) Ferrodo DS2500
3.) Performance Friction - is there an eqivalent z-rated pad for the AP racing calipers?

Would be grateful for your advice/help. I'm looking for fast road, low dust pad.

Many thanks
