How have your Carbotech pads held up? I just ordered some for the front and got tired of waiting for EBC redstuff. The isweep pads are too expensive if you are getting the same results. I hope they corrected the issue with them not fitting correctly.

Bought mine Aug 2022 and were installed by my dealer when my car came in later in Aug. They've never rattled, squeaked, etc, from day one. Fit like a T! I now have 15,000 miles on them. Per my tech when he mounted my new 4s's at 13,000 miles (lost the OE tire lottery), they have a "ton" of material left on them. Dust is next to nothing! Needless to say, I couldn't be happier with them!

Awesome, mine came in yesterday so I'm hoping to have them installed soon. Thanks for the response.

My front brakes are squeaking too much now. Its driving me mad. Which brand is the brand that does not move around in the caliper? I thought it was isweep that was moving around? But a few posts back mention carbotechs making noises. I do not want to hear any noises from pads shifting around.

Which one is the best to go with?

My IS2K are silent, and no break-in was needed.
