HiSpec pads rattling

[red vtec]

I have a set of 4 Pot HiSpec front calipers fitted, the brake pads rattle like mad, the rods are fitted along with the small clips so they wont fall out, but am I missing an "anti rattle clip" ?

Anyone know?

Which pads you using? This was happening on my old hi spec 4pots too. Drove me mad.

Not to sure what they are, as they came with the calipers used, I have set of pagid that I can stick on, at first I thought Sh!t the hubs are loose, but all is tight, the pads just rattle.

I was running hawks, maybe you are too

Best put the Pagids in Christopher

Yep may do, but they say for track use only, not sure if I would get enough heat in them.

They say that to sell them, don't believe it as true!

I run the Hi-Spec 4pots with Hawk pads - no rattle here - unless the wheel is not seated on the hub before tightening down... ;0

...and I've not been aware of mine rattling at all either (HiSpec and Mintex). No special springs or anything in there, just the pads, pins and pin clips. I did copper grease the back of the pad - but as you no doubt know that's really to stop sqealing rather than rattling.
