Advise on rear pad selection after installing BBK
Good morning all,
I installed the AP competition BBK on the front of my C5Z. I have Ferodo 1.11 pads installed on the front with the kit (6 piston if that matters). I have stock rear calipers and need to replace the pads before my next event. Before the BBK, I was using carbotech xp12front/10rear combination.
I know this AP kit and ferodo pad combo are common with folks on here. Looking for advise on where to start with the rear pad? My power and weight are stock.

I run Stoptech Sport (formerly street performance) pads on the street, and PFC 01 or Cobalt Friction XR2 on the track....still have to change pads for most tracks...if you are serious

Sorry, I forgot that detail
This is a track only car
I drive it maybe a dozen times a year on the street and half that time it's to go get a track inspection

I would start with DS1.11 front and rear. If you decide you want a little more bite on the front, go to DSUNO in the front and leave the DS1.11 in the rear. We generally recommend starting with the same compound front and rear, and tweaking from there based on feel. After trying both the DS1.11 and DSUNO, most customers are more or less completely satisfied. There is a substantial difference between the feel of the two, and people tend to gravitate towards one or the other.
PFC 01 for the Win!!
