I take it you rate them Alex

I'm guessing a fast road setup is enough for me I don't track 8 or 10 compound

 

If your car is stock then 6 will do for spirited driving or if you push on then perhaps 8.

 

Both are rotor friendly.

 

I use 10 rears and 12 front.

Supercharged 460bhp I like to push on

 

So would you recommend your setup then

8 should be fine for your application.

 

Alex have you used PF compound eg 01 or pagid rs 15 or 29? If yes how does it compared to the car carbotechs 10/12?

 

I have used PF01 and Pagid RS29 and I prefer Carbotech.

 

Each to there own thou.

 

Try them, :thumbs: however 12 may be overkill for your application.

 

Alex :)

I keep getting told ferodo 2500 are better no noise and less dust but I've also herd these are loads better

 

No comparison to the DS2500, Carbo's are far better. Ive got XP10's on the front of my 135i and Ive been impressed, only bad part was that I managed to set fire to the passenger side cailper while bedding in so its a bit noisy when giving full brake death.

 

Prefer them to RS29 but would probably still take Carbon Lorraine RC05+ given the choice :)
