Brake Pads for Racing Brake rotor

Hi guys,

Any one is using 2-piece Racing brake rotors on the w209/W203/R171 AMG?
If yes which pads are you using?

I read alot and can't decide wich pads to buy for the rotors! Racing brake recomends semi-metalic, and the Axxis XBG pads, but they are a bit difficult to find in my country. Is there any other brake pads that will work just fine as the Axxis with reduced dust and noise?

Thanks

What about Carbotech pads?

So the Hawk HPS are the performance street product, but if I want something more "agressive" for track use, what do you recomend?


PS: I sent you a PM

Thanks

I can't find it on the Hawk catalogue!

Thanks
