Wilwood High Performance Disc Brakes - Brake Pad Compound: PolyMatrix E

If you're fast on a road course, these probably aren't quite up to snuff.

Agreed. I have already ordered the 11.75 kit, I'll be selling this kit to someone who has a bit lighter duty. Going to try some DTC60's

A full set of PFC 01/11 for dynalite calipers front and 1.8 calipers rear is ~$30 more than a set of DTC-60s all around. As good as the DTC-60 is (I ran them for years), the PFC is THAT much better. Similar high torque but with smoother modulation, much better bite at low temp, and easier on rotors.

They are really good with my V8R 11.75 setup.

Damn about a day too slow, hawks are already shipped. I'll definitely give those a try after I burn through the dtc60s

you shouldn't have issues going forward, but i didn't see if mentioned whether you have brake ducting. could be another option if you're not.
