Where to start

What we’d fit.

The Lantra front upgrade gives you more pad and more rotor, so the compound choice is the same conversation as the standard X3 front — start with the circuit compound, step up if you're running out of ceiling.

Start here

WinmaX W5

100–750°Cµ 0.40–0.43

WinmaX’s standard circuit model, and the default club racing and rally choice in the range.

Step up to

WinmaX W6.5

50–800°Cµ 0.47–0.50

The standout for sprints and hillclimbs: close to 0.5 friction from a 50°C floor, so it bites on lap one. WinmaX call it their best rally pad.

Move to WinmaX W6.5 when you've gone up in power or you're running the bigger rotor hard.

This is TrackTheory’s recommendation for the Hyundai Lantra front / Excel big-brake upgrade (vehicle shape), not manufacturer advice — a starting point based on the published figures below and what we stock, not a survey of what other competitors run. Car weight, driving style and how long your sessions are all move the answer, so tell us yours and we’ll give you a straighter one.

Compound comparison

Same shape. Very different pads.

Every compound below bolts into the same Hyundai Lantra front / Excel big-brake upgrade (vehicle shape) caliper. What separates them is operating temperature and friction — a sprint pad that needs heat in it will feel wooden on a cold first lap, and a road-biased pad will fade before the end of a long race. Figures are the manufacturers’ own published data.

Figures are the manufacturers’ own published data for each compound. Where a brand doesn’t publish a figure we say so rather than estimate it. From cold is our reading of each manufacturer’s published minimum operating temperature, not a separate rating they publish. Manufacturers test on their own equipment, so friction numbers are best compared within a brand rather than across brands.

Cross-reference

One shape, every part number.

These part numbers all share the Hyundai Lantra front / Excel big-brake upgrade (vehicle shape) backing plate. The suffix is the compound (and plate thickness where the shape comes in more than one) — ask us or BuildBot which compound suits your discipline.
