Small brake pads


Recommended Posts

2019 car will have the much bigger 4-piston calipers and 355mm discs though.

Was it front of rear that was changed?

Regardless, it's possible and normal for the inside portion of the disc, closest to the hub, not to be used by the pads. Maybe an inch or so, but they should definitely contact the remainder of the surface apart from a few mm at the very outside edge.

I kind of doubt it, RC300h has funny little brakes behind those massive wheels. 

Fronts on the facelift are much bigger than the initial RC300h offering plus the discs are of the 'floating' type.

The 14" F-Sport brakes require different pad. Even though the standard 4 pot caliper pads will fit in the larger calipers. The shape, more importantly the surface area of the friction material, is slightly different. Here is a picture of the two from an online seller:
