    Default Brake pads for 166 calipers

    Hi I have bought these pads for my 166 calipers (on the Q4...) for track use - I have used them with the original calipers (on the Q4), and also with Mazda RX-7 calipers on other alfa racecars and they work great..

    They are made by TRW. However I see that the pads made for the 166 caliper in this compound have big "cut edges" at least in this manufacturers product?


    what are these cut out bits for?? less braking I guess?? Can anyone suggest another pad that does not have these cut outs?

    Guess they'd work better as they wear down .. hmm..
