I run XP10's upfront and XP8's in the rear. They bite very very hard. I love 'em (once they get some heat in them).

You should try them with the RacingBrake 2 piece rotors.

What was the benefit of this brand Vs a 2 piece Z1 setup? Are they better? The pricing seems to be higher for the fronts and rears.

Thanks!

Hold on, I thought RB doesn’t work well with Carbotech....I think it was RN Shark that had issue with that combo (XP pads with RB front 2 pc).

I read that too, was wondering why. My work great together. Have a slow speed squeak. The braking power and modulation is great. I can splatter your eyeballs on the windshield.
