Endless Pads-Anybody use them?
Anybody here use them? If so, please share your thoughts. Also..do you know of any vendors who sell them specific for the E9Xs?
PFC01 and PFC06 are popular pads for the track, figured I'd also explore Endless Pads. Also curious if the Endless Pads fit our stock calipers? |

wwjd15 (vendor) uses them, and also sells them. He can create a custom set up for you if you tell him how you want your brakes to work
Several other people I know use them... Blue E92, JZB E90, Matte Gray E92, AW E90.... Didn't know if they wanted to be mentioned or not so I'll let them chime in if they want...

You should also consider Pagid Yellows if you're interested in paying 'Endless' prices.
I run Pagid RS29's and they are perfect.

I'm running Endless MX72 on my stock caliper. I was looking for something to use at the track but didn't want to change the break pads for the street. They were squealing at first but after a full day at the track, I don't hear them anymore. So far, I'm very happy with them.

Let me know what kind of Endless pads you are looking at. I can help you out with the compound selection. We are one of the biggest Endless dealers in the US.

I've been running Pagid RS-19s for the past 3 years. I think they are excellent pads and have served me well. On some tracks you will definitely eat up more pad than others (Barber for one, CMP another), but I've never had fade, ever, and I've gotten them plenty hot. I think there are lots of other suitable alternatives, so it's not like these are the only choices.
I just received my first set of Endless Pads from Ricky (posted above). I've not tried them yet but what I like already is like the Pagids they have the stock retaining springs. Many of the other pads don't bother, and I'm sure it doesn't affect braking performance but I really don't want my pads rattling around in my caliper when my foot's off the brake. |

I have been hearing great things regarding the ME20 compound for both daily and track use.
Some people have mentioned they are a bit noisy, while many advertise them not to be for street use. Not to stray away from the OP's intention of this thread. But could you guys elaborate on the squeal and it's severity? Is anyone using some of that anti-squeal lube?

I ran CC-RG before on the Brembos on a previous car.
They held up well under the track heat, incredible braking torque at any brake temp but squealed like dying pigs on the street. I've had a better experience with Project Mu pads for hybrid street/track use. Here's a review done by Option Magazine. They were developed for WRC and Touring car racing. http://www.jdm-option.com/eng/parts/05_09/endless.html |

Everything I've heard about Endless Pads suggest that they a BBK would be a pre-requisite before installing the pads. Considering I'm using my stock brakes-would these work?

Why do you say this? I read that you can use Pagids and Endless on stock brakes and racing fluid without fear of fading in a standard HPDE track session. Both companies provide the correct shape for stock calipers.
