Could you please clarify if you recommend them for both front and the rears.
Whilst at it, maybe a price for the Winmax W1 front & rear.

Would be keen to hear from anyone using either to get their impressions about the difference in dust and actual stopping performance. No track use, only standard daily driver here.

I had the Hawk HB616Z.607 (Brembo 6 piston) on the front of the Turbo Territory with DBA 42102 XS discs and Hawk HB194Z.570 (Brembo 4 piston) on the rear with DBA 42108 XS discs. This is my preferred option.

The Winmax are dusty and noisy (squeally) as hell. I have them in the car now.

Project MU were good but dustier than the Hawk.


The Territory is a fast, heavy, modified vehicle with a Brembo 6/4 combo.

I am a heavy/late braker.

I did have the original discs resurfaced, so I don't know if that may be my problem as Matt has indicated that the Winmax pads are quiet and low dust.
