    Are they the "Street" or "Track" pads? I think I got the track ones so thats why they ripped up so quickly!

    I've got OEM pads from Renault and they are not too bad at all - don't seem to eat into alloys and are fairly dust free...

    How expensive were they though for OEM pads?

    What compound and discs are you using?

    They have the original RC5, RC6, RC8 and new RC5+.

    RC5 are the original ones that are good but dusty as hell and eat your bodywork and alloys as they have quite a high iron content that sparks off under heavy braking (cooool :P lol), the RC6 are a higher performance version of the same (designed for heavier/faster cars), and the RC8 are pretty much full race pads.

    The RC5+ are new and what I've tried. Great feel from cold, absolutely ridiculous bite once warm and, with the high carbon discs from the place that BB Tuning is now trading inder, I don't think they'll ever fade!!

    I'm surprised you don't like them tbh!

    True mate, I have never been that hard on thre brakes either but you really have to give the pedal some grief with the green stuff pads on . Went for the Black Diamond Pedator pads in the end as they has pretty good reviews. Will give some feedback at the weekend

    Cheers for everyones help so far
