I would suggest going with stock street pads and using good, dedicated track pads, change them out when you change your wheels.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a 2001 C-2. I knew my brake pads were getting a little thin after the DE I went to 2 weeks ago. At my DE this weekend, the brake wear warning light came on. It's time for new brake pads. What brand and type should I get. I plan on doing 6-7 more DE's this year. I'm going to get dedicated track tires and wheels. I do not want any pads that will squeak. I drive my car everyday. What pads are a step up from factory, will brake harder, but will not squeak. Are the pads easy enough to change, that I could change out the pads before a DE with a great braking pad, then back to a regular none squeaking pad after that. Thanks. Ken

POST 2Original post

Well I've been happy with Pagid Blue pads using ATE Super Blue Brake fluid. You may want to put on SS brakelines for better brake pedal feel while your at it. Regards. Mike

POST 3Original post

Brake pads are very easy to change, and with that many DEs, you will burn up street pads very quickly. I would suggest going with stock street pads and using good, dedicated track pads, change them out when you change your wheels. Once you get the hang of it, it shouldn't add too much time since the getting the wheels off is the biggest time component. Pagid Orange, Performance Friction, Hawk and Porterfield all seem to be popular choices.
