Default TRW PCCB Brake Pads

Has anyone of you tried the TRW PCCB pads?? I saw them on Pelican Parts at a great price! Any feedback will be appreciated.

I do not see any pads on Pelican's site for PCCB: http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/..._pg1.htm#item0

Where do you see them?

The only TRW pads I see say "Not for Carbon Ceramic usage"

I purchased a set for the rear 2 years ago. I never used them.
I'd be happy to sell them to you for 1/2 of the best price you can find including shipping.
I also have a set of new rear OEM pads. I think they are P50.
Still have the box with part number.

The ECS parts list the TRW pads for GT3 and Turbos. Can they be used for my 05 C2S with PCCBs? Aren't all PCCBs have same caliper size and rotors?

Hi
I have been in touch with Technical TRW in the UK.

They advise these pads are not to be used on PCCB brakes!...

Hi, yes spoke to technical support and explained this link as I have never seen any TRW in the UK offered for PCCB.

His email reply below, GDB1817 is a fitment for the 997 Turbo front pads.

Not sure if the links above are from another source and are correct, did contact ECS - no reply.

"Just researched the matter and I cannot recommend the use of the following parts numbers with your Carbon Ceramic brake discs.

Front
GDB1817 - Does not include aluminium counterweights
GDB1863 - Includes aluminium counterweights.

Rear
GDB1792

As far as I am aware the brake pads you require are NOT available in the aftermarket."

$10k rotors/axle. I like OEM guys, not worth the risk.
