Default If PFC 97's are going away, which compound to use?

I've used the 97's forever. Now that they are going away which PFC compound is most similar?

All I have been able to find that is available for our cars is the 06 or 08 in front and 08 in rear.

car is D stock 82 911

would like hard initial bit and good modulation. not overly concerned about wear.

Sean:
Try the 08s front and rear. Would work well on an SC/Carrera. We have both in stock.

It looks like 06s are going away too. If you really like them, buy them while you can.

Yes, the 06 will be phased out. We have a few sets of 06 on the shelf front and rear as well for the SC/Carrera.

Mark hooked me up with 08s for my 997.2 C2S. They impress.

I've gone through numerous sets of 08 F and 06 R in two cars, and have been very happy with them, to the point where I don't even have an interest in trying other pads anymore.

Those will fit, the 930, 944T, 964 stock fronts and rears (except the 90-91 C2 2 piston rears. Also fit the rear on the 993, and the 86.5 and up 928 rear. Same as Pagid U1203 and Hawk HB170.650
