Upgrade your front braking system with PFC Brakes’ 11 Compound front pad set (part number 0394.11.20.44), developed for BMW performance platforms and other select vehicles. This sprint and medium‑distance race friction compound evolves the legendary 01 Compound by delivering sharper bite, smoother release, and superior rotor conditioning — ideal for aggressive drivers who demand consistent performance in track and club settings.
The 11 Compound is engineered to deliver very high initial torque, minimal temperature‑induced torque variation, and excellent modulation across the pad’s operating temperature range. It’s designed to reduce wheel‑locking at the end of high‑speed stops, improve disc wear behavior, and maintain repeatable performance under repeated heavy braking. Typical fitments include the BMW 3‑Series M3 on E36 (1992–99) and E46 (1999–2005) platforms, as well as other BMW 3, 5, and Z‑Series models using stock front calipers.
For the enthusiast who splits time between the street and the track, or the club racer who needs hardware that stands up to heat cycles without fading or unpredictable behavior, these pads deliver a premium solution. Proper installation and pad bedding are recommended to unlock full performance and longevity. Whether you’re attacking a canyon run, lead‑follow track session, or event weekend, these front pads give you the braking control and confidence your BMW deserves.
