PAGID RST 3 Racing Brake Pad (Shape 8018) S8018T03001
The PAGID RST 3 is a sprint-focused racing compound with medium friction and very good control. It bites quickly from low temperature, stays consistent as heat builds, and releases cleanly so you can trail brake with confidence. It is often chosen on the rear axle to balance more aggressive front pads, but also works on the front where a medium level of friction is preferred.
Best for short to medium race stints, tarmac rally, hillclimb, club racing and fast track days. It is not designed for long endurance use.
Primarily for track and competition use. Expect more noise and dust than OE road pads.
Why choose RST 3
- Medium, consistent friction for predictable pedal feel
- Fast warm-up with strong initial response
- Excellent modulation and release for precise control
- High resistance to fade under repeated hard stops
Vehicle suitability and fitment
