BMW Racing Brake Pads

The RSL29 pad is an endurance racing compound with long life and great wear characteristics. It has stable friction over a broad temperature range which makes them a very easy to use and predictable braking pad in a lot of environments. An evolution of the RSL19 endurance pad designed for more advanced drivers. This compound combines the outstanding wear rate of the RSL19 with a slightly higher coefficient of friction and initial bite. RSL29 also features improved hot fade resistance over the RSL19. In addition to the endurance racing, this pad will also be found in GT and VLN classes and Touring Cars (including our own E46 World Challenge cars). BMW has been using Pagid Yellow pads on their Nurburgring test vehicles and Ring Taxi for years.

This is the set of FRONT pads.

RSL19 A favorite of BMW's Motorsport engineers, the Pagid RSL19 compound is an endurance pad based on the RS14 Black but with less friction to improve modulation and low pedal effort. These pads work best in a heat range up to 1,100* F. The combination of friction levels, fade stability, and long life for pads and rotors makes this a favorite for club and HPDE drivers. 

This is the set of FRONT pads.

This item fits the following BMWs:
2004-2011 E60 BMW M5
2006-2012 E63/64 BMW M6

The Hawk DTC (Dynamic Torque Control) compound offers the highest friction coefficient of any Hawk pad. The DTC pads offer extremely high torque with aggressive controllable initial bite, superior release and torque control characteristics. These DTC-60 pads have less torque than the similar DTC-70 pads.

Featuring:

• High Intial Bite
• Consistent torque over all pressures
• Operating Range:400-1600°F; 204-871°C
• High Temp & High Torque
• Provides Superior Pad and Disc Wear
• Excellent Torque Control
• Excellent Modulation and Release Characteristics
• Designed for High Deceleration Rates.

*Not for vehicles with Carbon Ceramic brake rotors.

• Quieter operation compared to standard pads, enhancing driving comfort
• Requires up to 1000 miles to fully bed in for optimal performance

Upgrade your BMW E46 with the EBC RedStuff Front and Rear Brake Pad Kit for cleaner, quieter, and stronger braking performance on every drive.

The latest in the Yellow line takes all of the RSL29 characteristics and adds a bit more aggressive behavior. Friction levels go up for more initial bite and better fade resistance. Modulation and release stays close to RSL29 levels. Pad and rotor wear is a little more than on the previous Yellows but still within reasonable levels and the RSL1 is still considered an extended endurance pad. Its development stemming from GT classes at Le Mans and Nürburgring.

Since Pagid pads tend to "out-gas" we recommend using these pads with a new gas-slotted or cross-drilled rotor for the best performance. Pagid brake pads are not compatible with previously used rotors, especially if used with a carbon or Kevlar based race pad.
