i have green stuff pads on the front with standard disks i have done around 8k and there is still plenty of pad left, there is a small amount of wear on the disk i do tend to brake hard to help get some heat into the pad and they seem to work a little better. i drove a 53 reg whilest my car was being serviced and noticed the brakes felt much sharper, so i would go for standard pads next time unless anyboady knows of another pad that stops as well as standard pad mixed with the low dust of EBC Green stuff :)
