Running a new BBK on my E30 from Compbrake (330mm & 6 pot calipers) but want to replace the Hawk HB-110 pads they supplied. They're OK but lacking in bite and so I want to try some alternatives. Maybe Dixcel or CL? I need a pad that is also suitable for road use, so I know they'll be a bit of a compromise.

Any suggestions / experience?

I've not heard of those. Can I ask what car / brakes you used them on?

I was thinking of going Carbon Lorraine but Compbrake didn't have much good to say about them.

Thanks for the advice guys. Decided to opt for Pagid RSL29 but wondered if anyone could help with code to replace Hawk HB110 please?

It's the Pagid RS29 I'm after, but in the same shape/size as the HB-110.

Thanks guys - I was struggling to make sense of it and the suppliers I called weren't much help. Appreciate you taking time to point me in the right direction. smile
