Hi all
Discovered the source of the rattling sound, it was the rear brake pads.
So looking at new pads for DD / occasional hills use. Recommendations? QFM? Hawk?
Also need new rotors. Are the 'Standard Replacement Disc Rotors' from MX5 Mania good, or should I be looking at something else?
Thanks

Re: Rotors and brake pads
OEM rotors no issues, A1RM's good choice of pads or a Winmax Pad.

Re: Rotors and brake pads
The above Winmax chart shows
W5 temp range lower than W2 & W3
Printing error

Re: Rotors and brake pads
Answered my own query - elsewhere on Motorsport Brakes website shows 750C for W5, not 450C as on chart

Re: Rotors and brake pads
Thought so, I use W6.5's on the front and W3's on the rear.
