Product Description

NOTE: Fits 2001-2005 MX5 REAR Sport calipers.

These pads are made to order. Please allow 2 to 3 weeks when ordering.

Performance Friction Brake Pads - 11 compound

High-end racing pads for the MX5. These accomplish what cheaper pads cannot - stable, high braking torque across the temperature range! Less than a 4% change in torque over 1000+ degrees of operating temperature.

Mario Andretti called this pad "first turn ready". Better torque at cold temperatures than any of our other "track/race" pads, and these don't change character as they heat up.

Some of the smoothest release characteristics in the industry - very responsive to pedal input and modulation.

The PFC 11 compound is the top choice in many professional Sanctioning bodies including IMSA Tudor, Pirelli world challenge, NASCAR, clio cup and Indy lights (before they switched to carbon/carbon).

The PFC 11 is the OEM choice on the Porshe 991 Cup car.

These pads are best when used with a high grip tire. Recommended tires: BFG Rivals, Hankook RS-3, Nitto NT-01, Maxxis RC-1, Toyo RR, Continental slicks, Hoosier (all), BFG R1.

RYAN'S NOTES:
My new favorite brake pad. Unlike almost every other track pad, these don't need hundreds of degrees in them before working AND they are stable up to the highest temperatures seen in professional racing. I used to have one set of pads for the street and autocross, and a separate set for the track. Now I leave the PFC pads in the car for everything! And the kicker is these do not need any fancy bed-in procedure. Just head out to turn 1 and hit the brakes!

NOTE:
*These are race pads! Dust is inevitable.
*These pads have a high torque rating, see the list of tire recommendations above, these do not pair well with standard street tires.
