    Brake Pads

    Front brakes have been making a bit of a grinding sound the last few days so think its time to fit some new pads (hopefully not discs aswell but if im to late, then they'll have to be changed as well). So what pads have people found to be good with standard discs? Or maybe just drilled or grooved discs but nothing too uprated? Im not overly concerned about brake dust, as the car gets washed at least weekly so will hopefully prevent to much of a build up of dust on the wheels.
    I've heard a few good things about Pagid pads, any others worth looking at?
