i have an 07 XKR,, am sure it doesn't have the alcon brakes,, but not sure what brakes it does have,,
anyone can share oem part numbers or recommended aftermarket options?

thanks,,

 

In truth, you need to tell us how you drive, how often you drive, how long you drive, and your geographical location.... Otherwise recommendations are generic and meaningless not to mention possibly dangerous.
The majority of owners here are not performance oriented, so low dust ceramic pads are the common preference. If your more aggressive, then you need to look at something better.

 

i only needed to know how to know which oem brake option my car came with from factory,, i need to shop for pads and this car seems to have many brake options available,, and by aftermarket,, i meant oem replacement options,,

 

to help you help me,,

called the dealer and they said i have alcon brake option which is not true,,

 

I don't have much confidence in your Jaguar dealer. It would be helpful if you let us know where you are located and the name of the dealer who gave you the erroneous advice.

I'm fairly certain that Alcon brakes were not available for your 2007 and were available only on XKRs for the 2008 and 2009 model years (USA). Unless you bought your 2007 new, there's always the possibility that a previous owner modded the car and installed Alcon brakes.

I'd call another Jaguar dealer's parts department, give them your VIN, and ask them for the brake part numbers. Or you can go online to Jaguar Merriam' s website and search there.

 

What you have are standard brakes. The Alcon ones would have teardrop holes in the rotors. My brakes (2009 XKR) look the same as in your photos. I got a new set recently from www.rimmerbros.co.uk as per following thread with their sales:
