The XTR pads from Superstar will fit fine - been using them in my new XT for a while. Both the XT and XTR use the same pads.

Newer shimanos have a standard pad size for all branded calipers. The XTRs will fit fine.0

Pretty sure the pads with fins are patented so only Shimano can make them. Sure the rattle of them would drive you mad anyway :twisted:

So far I have no rattles and love them to bits. Could be tempted to try superstar though seeing the price of the IceTek pads101_North wrote:matt@theforce wrote:Superstar don't list the pads with fins though
