Track front brake pads rattle like crazy when not braking
I have Performance Carbon 01's for the track and when I put them on they rattle like crazy when not braking. I have slotted rotors now on the front and I guess the slots make them rattle around more in the calipers since they fit a little loose and they don't have the clips on the back like the stock pads do to help keep them off the rotors.
Anything I can do to stop the rattling so bad? Some shims or adhesive something? |

The rattling would be caused from the pad not having the spring clip that keeps the pad on the caliper piston.
I would suggest you call the place you bought your pads from and see what they can do to help you. |

Swap back to OEM pads when not on track.
