WTB: Cool Carbon front brake pads

core22 · 11-28-2017, 07:38 AM

Looking for an unused pair of Cool Carbon front brake pads. Anyone willing to part with a set they bought as a spare? Can't seem to locate these on any of the parts sites online.

IND/EAS should them

I have been looking too, sounds like they are discontinued for the M5. A few have gone to Carbotech 1521’s with good results and others have said EBC Red Stuff pads were good. I was thinking about trying the carbotechs pending more research.

+1 - I need some Cool Carbon's too!

apsuard · 11-28-2017, 12:40 PM

I need a set to. I spoke to ECS and they are sold out. I talked to Cool Carbon and they made a limited 50 set run for ECS. We need to talk ECS into placing another order.

core22 · 11-29-2017, 12:40 PM

No 1521's in stock anywhere either. I'll read up on the EBC's.

josec70 · 11-29-2017, 07:35 PM

Cool Carbons were discontinued from what I have been informed.

core22 · 11-30-2017, 11:56 AM

Can't locate any EBCs either. Looks like they all stopped producing ceramics for our M5s.

pmatias03 · 11-30-2017, 12:37 PM

What's the next best option? I've read mixed reviews on other postings. I really need to get rid of the squealing at low speed stops.

Guys try Turnermotorsports

Turnermotorsports has Pagid track pads or OEMs. Looks like no one else has anything ceramic for street use.

Still looking.

I was able to find EBC Redstuff on the EBC site; I’ve not tried them but have seen some good comments on here.

MpowerMike · 12-07-2017, 08:04 PM

EBC red stuff for the rears are available and they are good , I’m running them .

I ordered EBC redstuff fronts since no cool carbons available and three straight vendors refunded my money because no EBC available. Was able to get carbotech 1521 fronts ordered and being delivered next week. Slim pickings for front ceramic pads. Many options for rear including Akebono

apsuard · 12-07-2017, 08:18 PM

Does someone have a hookup at ECS that can order another round of cool carbons? Or know someone at cool carbon that we could place a group buy with? I would order two sets myself.

pmatias03 · 12-08-2017, 07:22 AM

I would also take 2 sets!

josec70 · 12-08-2017, 12:40 PM

Same here

TheHouseWon · 12-08-2017, 06:23 PM

Anyone want my Carbotech? Front and rear? New in box

Would have bought these but yesterday afternoon I was able to order Carbotech fronts and rears from Speedfreaks USA (thanks apsuard for the info). I'm sure someone will jump on these.

I emailed cool Carbon directly to see if they would consider some type of group buy. They could probably sell 50 sets in a week or two if they are game.
