AP Brake Pads

I just ordered a set of AP brake pads. Does anyone have any experience with these Pad? Would appreciate your feedback!

I put a set on my Roadster, which has the RGM sleeved down master cylinder, I am pleased with the results and feel that the braking is better than with the Emgo pads that I first tried.

2nd that. AP so far has been the best pad I've used. if you also intend to do the back shoes, get Ferodo. The only stuff that actually puts some grip in the rear.

Thanks! I have the Ferodo shoes on the back, as well as Ferodo Pads. I am going to take the rotor/disk off, sand it down with a random orbital sander, repaint it then use the old pads to burn off the paint on the contact surfaces. Put on the new AP Pads and slowly bed them in. Hopefully this will give me better stoppers with a somewhat better feel...... at least that is the plan! :shock:

Wouldn't just masking friction surface work faster and better? To break in pads, light use a bit to kind grind imperfections off, then work up to hard as you can and not crash, yet never let pad stop tire completely. Dozen plus times maybe to heat them as hot as you can ever expect them to get in real use, unless racing, which is how they should run em in too.

I painted my factory but holey rotor gold inside all the bizzillion holes, but wiped excess off dry rag then light solvent rag, then later light sanding to new metal and then straight to new pads "burn in".
