I have DS2500s in stock for the CP5555 calliper. However, I would need your pad dimesnions, as there are different pad depths (i.e. disc width).

Between £120-140 depending on pad width. Just take one out and draw round it, take measurements and fax it through to me (01508 558 011). I can then advise you a proper price .

Std EsCos pads are about £85, or are you saying you paid a lot more than £120?
