Brake pads Brembo or Ferodo
I usually buy Brembo.
I've got OE spec ferodo on my 208 GTi no complaints from me, got brembo on my Saab 9-5 aero again all good I would avoid the cheaper end of the market
Ferodo DS2500 were good in my daily/tracked GTI and track NB Miata, until I got GLOC track pads on the latter. Which are awesome. BUT the DS2500 held up to the track really well, I'd definitely say for a daily that gets tracked they're about as good as you might get. Grease the contact points on the pad with copper or other compatible grease and i think they don't make much noise at all.
I have Brembos on the front of my 09. Working great for me.
I bought a set of brembo discs and pads, OEM spec. They work a treat and its much quicker to stop than oem brakes
I'm running Ferodo DS 1.11. and they're fine on the streets even during winters when it gets even as cold as -25C
New ceramic brembo brake pads all around. 10/25/2024
I've ordered brembo pads from them. After doing one corner I realised that there were 3 identical pads and 1 different pad for a different vehicle. I spoke to them about my issue and they send me a replacement brembo pad shipping free.
Ferodo Ds2500 as brake pads or Ebc Yellostuff (a tad cheaper). Avoid drilled or grooved rotors because kinda useless. Just a good oem equivalent like Brembo (if in you market have CTF go for it)
My brakes are overheating when I break the car from around 190kph (118mph) to around 30kph (19mph), I smell the brakes burning and see a lot of brake dust on the wheel. Even the brakes feel a bit spongy for a while after, but it firms back up.
