For me as an owner of a 2019 Hyundai Veloster with 60k and after 5 years of ownership , the only thing I had to do was change the oil , filter and brake pads.
Ferodo DS2500 is about the best pad you can get.
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'm running Ferodo DS 1.11. and they're fine on the streets even during winters when it gets even as cold as -25C
I got their vented rear and front rotors (Girodiscs) with stock calipers and Ferrodo DS2500 pads all around. For a stock powered car they work great at VIR. I have done 2 sessions there now and braking is pretty decent. On the street this combo will never fade period. The rears overheat which overload the fronts and cause issues. Rears overheating also causes the wheel bearings to go out so getting vented rears is just smart.
I am just now contemplating a sad goodbye to my 2003 Elantra VLE. It needs a brake job but has become a rust bucket driving in harsh winter conditions, Ottawa, Montreal.
We got our top of the line 2015 Starex brand new when it was released in 2016. Still works, did have a lot of repairs. It used to travel to and from QC to Baguio in it's early days but now mainly within Metro Manila (QC to Las Pinas, QC to Manila). It's got a lot of mileage now and the suspensions and break pads need fixing on top of having electricals reworked (fuses of some functions had to be removed cause they were malfunctioning). Basically running po siya but needs a lot of work done.
i’ve ran ferrodo ds2500 on my gli, they worked well as a hybrid street/track pad but would fade a bit after a few hard sessions
I had a track day today with 1 hour session and closer to the end they were fade.When I took the pads out to check I noticed that they are extremely glazed like covered with a melted metal.Also, looks like they covered rotors with this melted metal, the inner side of both of them.The outer rotors surface is fine. The outer pads look the same glazed.I was checking them yesterday last time and they looked fine.The friction material looked fine and not that glazed.It's on the last photo.I was trying to brake short and strong all the time.There car is Suzuki swift sport.Brake pads ferodo dsuno.Track Zolder.
