oh okay, thanks for that. The EBC sales sites don't seem to offer the red or yellow option for my car. That said, if they did, the further question would be would I need to upgrade the discs to do the pads justice? Not only that, supposing I could find them, would these pads damage my OEM discs that are still okay?

I guess the same questions apply to the mintex 1155 pads. Will these have an adverse effect on the discs do you know?
