Default GT3 Brake Pads?
Will stock GT3 brake pads work on a 991.2 Turbo with steel rotors. Have used Pagid's before, they are good on track but can't handle the squeal on the street. I liked the feel of the GT3 brake pads on my GT3 on the track, ands no squeal on the street. Are they a good fit and compromise for the Turbo?

I run the GT3 pads on PCCB with great success. I would expect they will work. Check to see if the same Pagid part fits the TTS and GT3 and you will find your answer.

Yes GT3 pads are interchangeable with TT pads, at least aftermarket options.

If you choose the right street/racing pads and good bedding you should have minimal squealing if any.

Thanks. I did check. The Pagid part #'s for RS-29 brake pads on Suncoast are indeed the same for Turbo (steel) and GT3.
