Endless ME22 Front Axle Pads - RCP173 Shape - For AP Pro 5000 R Calipers on BMW E and F Series
Looking for a serious braking upgrade for your BMW track build or fast-road car with AP Pro 5000 R calipers? These Endless ME22 front pads are the RCP173 pad shape and are a direct fit for the AP Motorsport front conversion used on popular BMW 1 Series, 2 Series, 3 Series and 4 Series platforms. Part number: ME22-RCP173.
Why ME22 is a favourite for circuit and fast road
- Derived from ME20 for reliable, confidence-inspiring stopping power with excellent control and pedal feel.
- Improved heat behaviour versus ME20 that can help reduce disc temperatures depending on setup.
- Stable, predictable friction thanks to a high graphite content that helps minimise transfer layer issues.
- Superb modulation and repeatability for track days, sprint racing and endurance use while remaining usable on the road.
- Trusted by our team and customers for consistent performance session after session.
Compound characteristics
Endless ME22 offers a slightly lower overall friction than ME20 which translates to smooth engagement, easy modulation and very repeatable behaviour as temperatures rise. The lubricating properties of the compound help keep material build-up under control, supporting disc life and clean, even bite. Ideal when you want dependable braking with a progressive pedal that is easy to trail brake with.
Direct replacement for AP Pro 5000 R front conversions
These pads fit the AP Motorsport front kit utilising AP Pro 5000 R calipers on BMW E and F chassis models. If you are running that front conversion, this RCP173 pad set is the correct front axle replacement.
