Red stuff - but they're more track biased (need warming up)

What's wrong with OEM?

jsut dont liek them, want a lil more, might get the disks drilled and grooved then throw some red stuff on it. I used to keep a set of green and red ( for track ) when you say greens arnt up to it, they cant be out preformed by the oem pads surly ?

Puppy, check out Ferodo DS2500 pads. These offer the balance that you are looking for. Red Stuff squeal when cold / normal road use.

Don't drill your own discs....

For road use, OEM, brakes international, Red Stuff, Mintex or Ferodo DS2500.

I found Red Stuff ok on the road - few dabs and they are ok.
