Shocks refurbished, new wishbones and balljoints, reset geometry, driving to a trackday and there was a little clonk every now and then over bumps; thinks - STM's??? nope;-

Took off wheels and checked the front pads and look what I found!

CL5+ pads, 4500 miles/half worn - failed!!

Have asked the suppliers if they think there is a problem........

Have to say braking was still OK, no disc or front susp damage (lucky!), I've put in a set of CL6's now.

ps - 4500 miles and my rims are still shiny :lol:
