Default Has anyone tried Ferodo DS2500 brake pads? On the street? On the track?

Any impressions on noise, dust, and rotor wear? Not to mention performance?

Default noisy and dusty, rotors are fine, pads are incredible . . .

even though they make a lot of dust, they wear really well - this set has been through 2 track days, a coupla autoxs, and maybe 20K miles - still doing fine, haven't checked depth in a while, passed last inspection no problem. Love 'em.

Default They're what came with my AP Racing brake kit and I find them good for street & track.

I'm on my second set.

But they do put off a bit of brown dust. I did experience a bit of deposit on the caliper under abusive use at my last track event.
I out drove a couple of instructors in a last gen Z06 and a new 'stang. I thought I warped the rotors but they have since stopped chattering.
