Not interested in more stopping power with Ds2500's? A fair bit pricier but worth it imo

Crap on road 2500's eat discs and wheel paint squeal and need warming up can only be justified if your doing trackdays IMO of course oh and more than double the price

Just ordered a set. The rears actually cost more than the front. Weird!

I went down the yellow stuff route. Very good feel from cold, relatively low dust no squeal and lots of bite when pushed. 100 quid more than those R8 pads but we'll worth it imo.

That's what I'm using now, a hell of a lot better than the apec crap pads I did have. Going to try the ferrodo next for comparison.

I'll probably do the same, but that won't be for a while as mine are virtually brand new !

I might put some EBC yellows in the rear. What are they like for dust? And are they harsh on pads?
