Hi Matt, what options and prices do you have on pads for FGX XR8 front 4 pot Brembo? Prefer lower dust than the Brembo set up. Have a set of front DBA 42102XS to go on.

Priced from $110 a set upwards but have had some squeal issues with many pad materials for the FG 4 pots.

DBA SP pads seem to be ok most of the time but they have run out of stock. Project Mu used to be the best option but have noticed a increase lately and i don't use Bendix. Winmax are also nil stock sorry.

Depends on how much an improvement you re after s we have various pad and rotor upgrades available and then after that it is a Brembo upgrade either in the front with 6 pots and/or also rear 4 pots. You may need wheels to clear the Brembo conversion though.

You would still need to check they clear the bigger brakes as the space behind the spoke area is the main culprit and fouling issues but assuming that is ok , you could go up to the Brembo 6 piston kits.

It's not the rotors you need to be concerned abut, it's the calipers.
