Thumbs up Front disc / pads...

Not sure which to go for so anyone who has run these might be able to help!

I was quite set on the EBC Redstuff combination which are very well priced.

Next on the list are DBA which always seem to get a great write up. These are just over

Don't get the Spoon ones, it intereferes with supply and demand.

Whenever I want them, Ant doesn't have any in stock because of everyone else is buying them.

Cheers Simon!

Lucky, they look smart - I will let you know as I may need them ASAP. When you think they will be here? What pads were you planning on using?

I hope they look like that.. mine were also from J's and certainly did not have such a finish as in the picture.. in fact probably the worse bit of gear I had off J's...

currently using pagid race pads.. I actually think the discs are wearing faster than the pads are.. they were actually 2nd hand (used) and I have then done 350nurburgring miles and then a bedford trackday (+all the driving inbetween).. the pads are at 9.5mm??

what are the original thickness of new ones.. around 10mm?? well that's what my new cobalt pads measure.

I don't know the price..but if you are doing trackdays..the pagids are difficult to beat.

EBC now do the Yellow Version (Track Day spec) for the S2 Calipers
Have used the Red Ceramics - OK
Yellow certainly Better on Track
