Anybody tried Endless pads? It looks like they offer a few different compounds in IS500 sizes.

 

I use endless fluid, but have not tried their pads. For the price and quality, I would suggest G-Loc brake pads. I have use them extensively in the past and they have performed exellently. They would be more readily available as well.

 

I'll second the G-LOC. I use them on my C7 Z06. The GS street pads have lasted longer and produced significantly less dust than the Z06 stock brembo pads, and R-10 race pads hold up well on track for me.

 

Will be using R12 front and R10 rears.

 

Who sells these Endless or G-LOC brake pads?

 

Not sure for Endless, but for Gloc you can order directly from them. Contact sales@g-locbrakes.com.

 

I can vouch for the G-LOC GS-1 brake pads & I had them on my STI in the past. I worked with KNSBrakes for ordering them & shipped.

Careful with vendor links, they'll get deleted if they're not paid forum sponsors.

 

Does G-Loc make anything for our car? I had Carbotechs on my racing Miata years ago and they were fantastic.

 

Hmm... G-LOC does not seem to have a pad listed for any Lexus model after 2018. Might have to get the pad shape number and give them a call to see if they have it or can make it.

 

I have been told its the same as GS 350, They also can make pad for any car if you give them a shout. I can look up part number as I just put them on my car.

 

That being said. As everyone else mentioned, the current calipers do not instill confidence at the track even with much better pads and fluid. Canyon driving should be fine. I will give it a couple of more goes at the track, but looks like GSF or RCF front brakes might be in the books.

 

How many people have tried these pads? I am very interested in actual results from users. If the pads have better feel I'm good. I'm not likely to do any track days with this car but spirited runs in the hill country or quick stops from high speed can happen.

 

I can only tell you about the G-loc R12 compound as that is what I used. The stopping power for spirited driving is excelent. Good modulation and pedal feel. You can reach out to them and explain your use case and they will direct you to the best compound for you.

 

Are you using their pads front/rear? Do you have the part #'s for them?
