Recommend asbestos pads for front brakes?

Since Carbotech is the only pads on the market without lead it's going to be harder for the Bobcat, JUST the Bobcat, to eat away the residue left by other pads. IF you want to run the AX6 or any of our track pads you can use your current rotors.
Based on post #21, I"d say you would be better off running the XP8's in the rear full time and XP8's on the fronts for track, and you may also like them on the street, if not run the AX6 for the street.
Hope that helps, D

if you use carbotech pads you can run any pads that they make with out cleaning/turning your rotor . if you are going from another pad to carbotech you do need to turn your rotors it is a skin cut like .01 of an inch a side (human hair is .003) so that is not a lot of materal off your rotor. now if some one is going to a race pad i have heard that they will clean off the rotors but it might take a session to do so. i hope this helps

Jeez guys, he just wants some low-dust front brakes. A set of EBC Green will work fine, and are widely available. As brakes, they are no better than stock, but no worse.
BTW, when I fitted EBC Red pads on my rear brakes, they had a coating of sand embedded on the surface, which took a dozen hard stops to wear off. There is certainly not going to be much need to turn the rotors if the new pad is going to sand them off anyway.
