I've used all the pads(except CL) mentioned here and get FREE ferrodo pads discs drums etc.
I instead BUY ebc yellowstuff, interesting to note the plod use these as they are police spec approved, unlike all the others mentioned here.
Discs from ebc used to be terrible, but good now as made in house.
My tarox 6 pots came with 10 mile old DS2500, now have new yellowstuff DS were binned, they have zero feel compared to the ebc yellows and reds, they are also crap from cold in comparison to the yellows/reds.
Ebc have a money back gaurantee that if you can find a better road spec pad they will refund you in full.
Mintex 1144/1155 are 100% better than DS 2500 imo, just very very dusty.
Despite taking off the anti rattle shims from the rear of the pads for a better feel I still have not in 15 years had so much as a squeak from the pads hot or cold, I use no coppaslip either on rear of pad.
