    Best brake pads?

    Need to change the brake pads very soon - possibly tomorrow.

    What are peoples opinions on what pads to get? Demon Tweek is 15 minutes down the road from me, so will be able to pick some up tomorrow.

    Car is fully a road car - no track days etc.....

    Fancy something with a bit more bite to them.

    Cheers,

    Al

    Not the new versions of green stuff.
    There a good pad for the price, and cope with trackwork well.

    We'll see. Will report on them once they're bedded in. First time i've had uprated pads, so lets hope i notice a difference.

    I don't do track days anyway. Just wanted to try something a bit better.

    Well I've switched from DS2500 pads cos of the amount of dust they were producing, they are excellent pads, but they were reuining my alloys. I've got the Ver.4 of the greenstuff pads and they seem ok to me. These are better for mw as I don't do track days anyway.
