Anyone here using Stoptech brake pads? I noticed alot of venders are selling them now!
I've ran the their pads in several StopTech BBKs in the past, the 'base' big brake pads share the compound with the Sport Brake Pads. They are a little dusty (but still less dusty than the stock BMW pads) but offer great bite, pedal fee, a decent temp range, and they are nice and quiet.

I use them .. I drive 100% on the street and I don't consider myself aggressive. That said I have had very good and consistent performance wet or dry with their Ceramic pads. I have drilled slotted rotors on my E36 and factory rotors on my E39 M. Both using StopTech ceramic pads.

Ok thanks for the information!
I used the street performance pads and HATED them. Cold bite was non-existent and they destroyed my new rotors. I'll never buy them again.
Interested in vintage cars? Ever thought about racing one?

I had a similar experience a few years back with one of StopTechs aggressive street pads (it may or may/not have been called 'street performance'). Dangerously bad cold bite, almost rear ended someone. Took them off my car and threw them in the trash after just a few days.

if you want cold bite you cant beat the OE pads from Jurid or textar. they do dust buts thats why god invented the pressure washer and weekends.
