Well....I have Ferodo Ds2500 at the moment. Not too bad with the brake dust and good stopping power. Mintex are also good, squealed a lot on the valver though.

Carbonne Lorraines are very good too, but eat discs...just ask Ronee :lol:

Aye, well them Carbonnes scare me a bit with my near-mint alloys. The ferodos have been pretty decent on the brake dust and debris side of things, quite impressed actually!

Pagid RS29s are definitely the best pads I have come across to date. Not sure whether they do them in standard Clio fitment though.

they have to eat discs in order to stop you though .
the faster they eat the faster they stop , no ?

Did some digging and can't find the RS29s listed for the Williams anywhere I'm afraid. They do sell the RS4-2s though, which before the RS29s I found pretty good:

fair play ^^
but i also need to keep my kidney intact (sold 1 on ebay last year ) :?

i agree standard pads are no good for track though , mine disentagrated
after 2 track days and my car is not the fastest on planet either :shock:

I've ran standard pads on my track car for the last 3 years and never changed them, and i abuse them quite a lot! brakes feel very sharp indeed and did a 15 minute track day session last year. still going strong lol

my car is light as **** though so thats probably why they feel so good
