Brake Pad Replacements

Hi guys. You've probably been asked this b4 (sorry) hehehe, but I'm close to needing new pads. I have the standard discs fitted. Should I just stick with regular OEM's or are there anyones that offer better performance without and niggles and costing a gold plated bomb ? Thanks for any advice :)

Im using Mintex all round at the moment seem ok so far, but then i havent covered that many miles since they have been fitted....ebay has them cheap

I have them also. Though they are in the boot of the car :duh:

Should be going on tomorrow along with the Mintex Disc.

Pads on eBay - HERE - £25

Discs and pads - Here - £105

I bought my pads from these guys, delivery the next day.

Greenstuff and Redstuff are Crapstuff. Totally useless. Well, not totally. OK if you want to potter on down to the shop to get the paper or a pint of milk. Slowly.

OK, so they might impress the local Corsa "pimp my ride" Chav or Chavette. If you want to do that then get some paint and paint the edges of the proper pads green or red.

But drive the Grerenstuff of Redstuff hard and the brake fade is frightening. I'll never use their products again.

Just become a member of this site. Just swapped my Scooby WRX STi import with 300+ bhp, for an IS200. I reckoned it would be easier to sell the Lexus. Anyway, point is, I have used all sorts of brake pads but the Ferodo DS2500 is phenomenal. Brake fade? Brake...what? No such thing. And they work equally as well when cold. And last for ages.

Ferodo DS2500? Greatstuff!
