Fitting new brake pads...

Post by Dan-RS4 » Thu Apr 24, 2014 1:56 pm

Hi all,

Have just got some Ferrodo ds2500's as my pads are nearly gone.


I'm looking for advice on the pros or cons of fitting these before a track day on Saturday? Obviously I will give them a good bedding in before hand but didn't know if throwing them in at the deep end straight away could cause any problems or not?

They'll be fine...couldn't think of a better way to bed them in than a track day!
