Brake pads Hella Pagid or Project Mu
Consider Project Mu Club Racers. They’re not the most aggressive pads but hold up decently well on track depending on your pace and are surprisingly streetable.
Pretty happy with my PMU 999s. They’re a step down from csgs but so much cheaper even with tariffs on imports.
IMO the best are Project MU-HC+. in my Megane RS I could treat the HC+ as a track pad and go all-out for a full session, they'd just wear pretty fast at high temps
The pads seem to last forever on the street, and work really well on the track/ when warm
For years I ran Pagid Black on the fronts and Pagid Yellow on the rear.
My personal compromise on the GT4RS is Pagid RSL29 front and rear.
Pagid yellow for me.
I found Project Mu Club Racers to be decently streetable for a track pad. They do squeal a bit at less than 25 but are tolerable as long as they’re bedded in and you’re giving a decent amount of threshold pressure.
be mindful with those pagid pads. they’ve been making noise on a lot of cars we’ve put them on recently. massive chucks of metals in them. still stop great but may make some noise
I went through a set on my M4 in two days. Have Pagid RSL29 now and three very hard driving days in they show little if any wear
