Rotor and Pads Suggestions

[Abdullah.12]

I’m looking to upgrade my rotors and pads to withstand spirited driving and light track use. What are the budget options to get for the FL5?
I’m trying to get better oem alternatives that won’t break the bank and offer more braking power and longevity.

You won’t need upgraded rotors for spirited driving and light track use.

Paragon P3 pads with titanium shims worked well for me until heavy track use caused me to upgrade to AP Racing rotors and calipers with Ferodo pads.

Search the pad thread, and use the search bar for the rest of the pads, rotors, and brake fluids. You will need cooling upgrades before you need rotors.

Agreed on fluids. I have used Castrol SRF for years- one flush per year— without issue.

If Oem hat + rotor ring -> SPD rotor seems pretty well priced. If not, Just find some rotor off of rockauto that suits your driving style. Pads, i I did some research and the thing is the pads are almost entirely subjective when it comes to feel and no one is really doing and back-to-back-to-back copmparison yet so youre kind kinda have to take what the internet says they are.
