Default Good so far. I have only had them for about 1200 miles...

Not to mention that i also upgraded from slotted rotors to Brembo drilled so i don't have a good read on whether or not its the rotors or pads that are making my stopping better...

Pads are for grandmas. Tampons are classy and good for plugging bullet hole wounds.

Default Seriously though: check if Ferodo has the DS2500 in our fitmet

I run them on my mustang and they are fantastic street pads.

Once the S is ready for a brake job i'm going to get them if they are made for our brakes. Unless i am ready to go BBK by then.
