Endless ME22 or alternative?

Hello, so I've had these pads in for around 20k km went for a brake fluid change and they fell apart : , I'm thinking of going to ME20 because I am rather aggressive when it comes to B roads...

Any suggestions on other pads? Or is 20k good? Need new rotors as well only fronts though they lasted 40k Km

Ferodo DS2500. Great pads for street.

Never track with Ferodo DS2500 as it will just leave deposits on your rotor and causes vibrations under braking.

I have heard and read great reviews on the Endless ME20 for track use...probably the best.

For both street use and track use the Endless CCRg is great.

For mostly street and occasional track use the Endless MX72 Plus is what you want.

Ineresting, I installed ME22 couple of weeks ago and find them great when cold. Once they get hot they start squealing even with the anti vibration shims, so returning to city center from mountain drives is a bit embarrassing 😅

To your point 20K km is acceptable as those are soft high initial bite pads for track sprints.

How about the pagids RS19 yellow? I never had them, but people praise them and the cost about 30% less then endless.

Go for PFC08, great track and back road pad. I use ME20, they are squelling, but I can live with that as far as I'm not using it as a daily car.

Not a fan of endless ME 20 or 22 had both on 2 cars and they died after 3-4 track days in each car (6-8 hours of hard driving and lots of mild street driving). Edges started braking off and the pads were very tapered.

Maybe if you do short stints they will be fine.

RSL29s are much better but a bit noisier on the street especially the very light braking one needs to do to smoothly stop a DCT car.

There is a guy on rennlist that pretends that he's been using proper bedding for the last 20years and he was able to run track pads on the street with none or almost no noise. I did not find is method online, guys seem to PM him to get it...

I’ve got endless ME22/CC38 at the 400mm bbk also, less squealing than stock for my taste.

very good initial bite, constantly when warm, but the wear on the discs is a lot ..
