Default just fitted new pads,,,,they work the nuts too

right as im going to the ring ive just fitted some touring car spec brake pads, they aint recomended for road use though for some reason,,, but by christ they work !!!

down side is the ABS is tripping in under harder braking,,, well when i was bedding them in actually pmsl

i used mintex 1155's them 1166's before and was most impressed,,,, but these where given to test out,,,, and christ there good, tell the difference straight away !!!

What compound are they? I've been running 1153's in the AP's, which are the same as the Tomcats use- and they're ace (and cheap). Be careful with the fallout though- it may be quite nasty and difficult to remove from bodywork and wheels.

i cant say what they are tbh for another reason but once all is tested with em and proven at the ring i will prob mention them again

im worried about the dirt and metal off the bads as theres ALOT of gold metal substance on the pad material,,,, and my hands got dirty just rubbing the face of em so ive decided that i need to choose a wheel colour that wont be affected by the brake dust



what you think,,,,, dont expect the dust to make a difference to be noticed on them
