Dont buy performance pads of any kind. Go to your local motor factors and buy whatevers cheapest. My mate works for Federal mogul (sp) and informs me that they make brake pads for almost all of the major manufacturers, and they all use the same friction material. Only difference is the paint on them and the name stamped on them
