Track Pad Reccomendation with Rattle Clip

I have PFC 06 pads in the front and PFC 11 in the rear. In the summer months I run the track pads on the street when I'm going to HPDE events. The fronts are obnoxiously loud since there are no clips and every time I hit a bump in the road they rattle and scare pedestrians.

What endurance track pads have rattle clips for a 2008 M3? Pagid RSL29? Hawk DTC-70? Carbotech XP12? CL RC6E?


Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, you're not going to find many race pads with anti-rattle hardware. The brands we offer don't have any anti-rattle provisions, including CL Brakes and Ferodo. They're made for race use, during which NVH isn't really a concern. We do feel your pain though...been there myself many times. You're probably just going to have to grin and bear it. Maybe just wear this while driving to help explain?

Thanks for the reply J. My favorite pad ever was your CL RC6E on my old track beater. I only picked up the PFC's because they were on closeout. Maybe this winter I'll have you set me up with one of your front brake packages

I ran the CL RC6E and RC6 on my miata track car and really enjoyed them. Definitely let us know what you need for the M. We'll be here and ready to help!

Pagid RS19 had the anti-rattle clips both front and back, but I've not had a set in several years. They are excellent pads BTW.
