Default upgraded dust seals

hi was wondering if you get silicon/upgraded dust seals for the standard sumitomo 4 pot caliper?

ive swapped over my trackday pads for road pads this afternoon and discovered ive bubbled my third set since christmas (twice on road use+ once on track in the wet). theres no problems with caliper as all the pistons are 100% corrosion free. genuine seals were used each time.

ive been looking into ap kits etc but like everything to be as it should on the car so will be doing the seals again whilst i decide on which upgrade.

i did reseal brembo calipers on previous impreza with silicon stoptech seals and they werent problematic

I have the same problem on my brembos. I havnt replaced them yet but realy need to.

Where didi you get stoptech seals from? Were they good and easy to fit?

It was zeckhausen racing i got them from. I was told they needed a bit more force to fit but i still managed to push them in with my thumbs. Caliper was fully stripped and cleaned for refurb any way.
