The standard for ceramic carbon metal, for street-conscious track meet usersMX72 minimizes dust and brake noise while being semi-metallic, improving braking performance at low temperatures. It also increases braking stability at high temperatures and realizes a reduction in rotor aggressiveness. We also worked to polish the pedal touch, which is a strong point of semi-metallic materials.

Endless Brake Pads FAQs
Not sure which Endless brake pad compound to choose? These are the questions we get asked most often about Endless pads, including MX72 Plus, ME22 and fitments for popular BMW models such as the M140i and M2 with 2NH calipers.
Which Endless brake pad compound should I choose?
The right Endless compound depends on how you use the car. For fast road and occasional track day use, MX72 Plus is usually a strong starting point. Endless lists MX72 Plus as suitable for both street driving and track days, with a 50–750°C heat range. For more committed track use, ME22 offers a higher 150–800°C heat range and is listed for race cars and street/trackday cars. For dedicated motorsport use, compounds such as N35S may be more suitable.
Are Endless brake pads good for road use?
Yes, selected Endless compounds are suitable for road use, but the compound choice matters. MX72 Plus is the most relevant option for fast road and mixed road/track use, as Endless lists it under street use and describes it as suitable for street driving and track days. More track-focused compounds may introduce extra noise, dust and low-speed compromise depending on the car and setup.
Are Endless MX72 Plus pads good for track days?
Yes. Endless offers several compounds suited to track day use. MX72 Plus is suitable for street and track day use, while ME22 is a better option where higher brake temperatures are expected. For dedicated race or rally use, Endless offers more motorsport-focused compounds such as N35S.
What is the difference between Endless MX72 Plus and ME22?
MX72 Plus is the more road-biased street/track day compound, with a listed friction range of 0.39–0.47μ and a 50–750°C heat range. ME22 is a more track-focused compound with a lower listed friction range of 0.33–0.38μ but a higher 150–800°C heat range. In simple terms, MX72 Plus is usually the better choice for mixed road and occasional track use, while ME22 makes more sense for harder or more regular circuit driving.
Do Endless brake pads need bedding in?
Yes. Endless brake pads should be bedded in correctly. Endless’ own competition pad bedding guidance advises checking the discs first, cleaning away old compound residue where needed, then carrying out a controlled bedding cycle before full use. Correct bedding helps the pad and disc work together properly and supports consistent performance.
Are Endless brake pads noisy?
Any performance brake pad can produce some noise depending on the compound, caliper design, disc condition, bedding-in and how the car is used. Road-biased compounds such as MX72 Plus are generally the more sensible choice for mixed road use, while more track-focused compounds may be more likely to make noise at low speeds.
Do Endless brake pads produce a lot of dust?
Dust levels depend on the compound, vehicle and driving style. As a general rule, higher-performance brake pads can produce more dust than a standard road pad. This is part of the trade-off for stronger braking performance, better pedal feel and improved consistency under harder use.
Can I use Endless pads with standard brake discs?
In most cases, yes, provided the discs are in good condition and suitable for the compound being fitted. Endless’ bedding guidance specifically says the discs should be checked for cracks or damage, and old compound residue should be cleaned away where needed. For track use, we would also recommend checking brake fluid, disc condition and overall brake system health before fitting upgraded pads.
Should I upgrade brake fluid when fitting Endless pads?
If the car is being used hard on the road or on track, yes. Upgraded pads can handle more heat, but old or low-performance brake fluid can still become the weak point. For track use, we recommend pairing Endless pads with a high-performance brake fluid such as Motul RBF660 or Motul RBF700.
Are Endless brake pads worth the money?
Yes, if you are looking for better braking performance, pedal feel and consistency than a standard road pad can offer. Endless pads are premium products, so the value comes from choosing the right compound for how you actually use the car. For fast road and occasional track use, MX72 Plus is usually the most sensible starting point. For harder track use, ME22 or a more motorsport-focused compound may be the better choice.
