Sorry for the bump,

Looks like SHW's contract for the part number on OEM front rotors is up. They are populating and should be in stock at most places by mid May. Same as factory. I have about 8 track days plus 42k miles on my set of rotors. Need to measure thickness but they are finally out due to cracking. Rears are still in good shape. Just ordered EBC front and rear, we'll see how those do.

I run DFC5000 when I don't have track pads on but I would not run their rotors. Look like junk. Maybe in an absolute pinch but at ~300 a corner the stockers are REALLY good for the price.

Also, G-Loc has pad shapes available front and rear. I have been running r12-r10 but I am going to try out r16-r12.

+1 for DFC5000 pads. I have them on my car but I don't do track days. It's ironic more are not running these especially for the price and how well they are.

Im looking for a brake pad that gives off less dust. Im willing to convert to ceramic because as soon as I spend 10 minutes per wheel they become dirty as soon as I pull it into the garage. Any recommendations? I would greatly appreciate it.

They aren’t getting the same push as other pads are from the vendors. If I’d had a few more data points when I was looking at new pads I would have bought them.

I should have known they were good since you’re running them. I trust you because we’re wheel bros. I almost forgot we’re spring bros too

🤣 you know it.... I made the mistake of trying Carbotech and took them off with less than 500 miles and 300 dollars in the hole. Very happy with DFC advanced pads.

It akes about a week or so to build up. Also it's very easy to wash off. When I get home from work, I will take a picture of two weeks without washing.

This is two weeks of no washing. You can see where I wiped a mark on wheel.
