so if Hawk isnt making aftermarket pads for the Gt4/Spyder (Red - Carrera S) then who is?

stout

Looked a while back, though the GT4 uses GT3 calipers where the Spyder does not. Everything for the GT4 and GT3 looks to be track oriented, rather than street oriented with low dust—seems like a pretty big hole in the market, as even the factory pads are track oriented and are very high dust.

Are you looking for a street pad or track pad?

Try Ferodo DS1.11

I will give them a try, just ordered them.

I hope they last more then 5 track days, we'll see.

Thanks

I got six days on a set, but that's with drilled OEM rotors. Hoping that this next set last longer mated with Girodisc.

I had 14 days on the fronts when I changed them out. They still had 40% left. The rears now have 20 days on them and don't look like they will ever need changing. I normally run with nannies off which probably saves the rear pads. I'm on oem rotors.

How do these pads work when dead cold?

Bill Lehman

I leave the pads in for the street. No issues.

Joe Weinstein

Thanks Bill! I might use them for autocross, which starts cold. Bite plus modulation and no squeaking?

Six days on 1.11 pass?? That seems crazy low to me unless you replaced them at 50% wear.

They do squeak pretty bad. The easiest fix I found is to track your car often so they get "bedded" all the time. Once I don't track for a few months, they become louder and louder. Other than that, they have been perfect for me. Low dust, long life, bites well even when cold, consistent, easy to modulate.

+1 especially re the dust.

In texas temps I get 6-8 days from a front set of DS1.11, 8 is really a stretch.

There are some amazing deals out of the EU on Ferrodo right now if you do some legwork and buy a few sets at once.
