Brake pad suggestions for AP CP5575-1004

MisterCorn · 09-09-2016, 10:04 PM

I need new front pads for my car, the current ones mess up the wheels and they are getting a bit thin. Any suggestions for a good fast road pad? Unfortunately the car is not likely to see a track in the foreseeable future.

I'm using Mintex ones, 1144 I think.

Dust isn't too bad and the squealing is bearable.

Ferodo DS2500 suffer with pad deposit on track but should be fine for road use. Generally quite cheap compared to pagid etc.

I have the Ferodo DS 2500 pads in the rears and beleive they are the ones provided with the AP kit. I have never had any problems with them on track or road. Pagid RS-29s in the front so maybe that is why.

Thanks guys, I'll keep an eye out for the Ferodos, I'll be doing it over the winter so no great rush.

Got a full set of DS2500 in the garage that I used very briefly before going RS29s if you're interested.

Never got round to putting them in FS section.
