What brake pads are you folks running for road or track?

[Monster MS]

Pagid, EBC Red, Black Diamond, Ferrodo?

Something else?

thanks

Neil

Ferrodo DS2500. There seemed to be alot of bad feedback on the EBC's and I was put off by other brands such as Red.Dot because Halfords sell them which normally equals cheap & cheerful/budget mods.

Ferrodo DS2500 every time for the track. had mintec's but worst pad ive tired burnt them off in about 3 sessions

You're gonna hear nothing but DS2500's in this thread. I was well impressed with mine. 8 laps of the Nurburgring with no fade at all.

Dunno ATM as they were fitted when I bought the car, but bought some DS2500s to be fitted this coming weekend

 

[Monster MS]

starting to see a pattern here

Out of interest where do you get your pads from and at what price?

thanks

Neil

Most get them from Badger5 it seems

 

[Willie]

Just now DS2500's but going to go for DS3000's as there supposed to be alright on the road from cold but even more amazing when red hot on the track.

DS2500 for Badger5 (forum sponsor) £98 for front for 323/330mm x 28mm Brembo calliper fitment on the LCR

How up to date is that price Willie? I was quoted something like £110 + £9.95 delivered a few weeks back

Now for Brembo fitment..
An alternative to stock or Carbon Metallic pads..
No wear sensors..
Price £96 +vat per set.. which is more like it.

For those with 312mm BRakes - DS2500's - £118 +vat per set

It's not what you know, it's who you know

LOL

£98 + VAT AFAIK

 

[AntneeUK]

Hmm, definitely not what I was quoted recently. Does that include delivery?

 

[Willie]

Including delivery, Bill carried them to my house and fitted them for me for that price, lol

Na, I always buy a heap of stuff together, delivery was £10 ontop

 

[AntneeUK]

Gotcha

 

[ibizacupra]

Gents - Ferodo have had a significant price rise, so timing for quotes has a huge baring on what you were quoted and more to the point, WHEN you were quoted.

What was £99 is now £109 for example on DS2500 for brembo fitment

 

[AntneeUK]

Thanks for the clarification Bill

you are posting an old link, not current prices which have risen sharply.. euro exchange rate caused this as well as Ferodo's continuing prise rise
