I have a 09 XR6 with std brakes and since new I don’t feel I have the confidence in the brakes at all. Soft pedal feel mainly. I have had the ABS system bled which helped a lot with soft pedal but at fast braking I still feel the brakes slow down to slow compared to my Focus 06.
I think I might be used to the Euro soft disk to much. Does it sound like faulty brakes or is this normal for them and if so can you recommend a replacement for the 17” STD wheel. |

You can't compare the two but i know what you mean in regard to the braking as you will always find those smaller cars pull up well when new.
See how you go but you may need some better pads and some dba rotors if a shudder starts to appear.
