Carbotech XP10 front XP8 back - my choice BUT

runwhatyabrng · 07-04-2021, 06:56 AM

At the track I run 275 front and 305 rear Toyo R888, I have Stillen brake ducts and always run RBF600 fluid with XP10 Front XP8 rear. Never experienced brake fade at the track but my dust boots always burn up. Love the Carbotechs for the stopping power and durability: Hate the Carbotechs for dusting and squealing in daily driving. Rebuilt the calipers (again) This time around added front 2 piece slotted rotors maybe that could hep in the cooling dept. I have also ditched the carbos for Stoptech Sports, don't do enough track to justify living and a daily basis with the squeal and dust

just a little update, I am pleased with the Carbotechs, dusty yes, noise, a bit not bad... stopping very pleased. But what I have learned, is that braking technique, is really key to my future of going a bit faster

, so trying to understand and practice braking pressure..
