i had ds2500s on my old cossie 4 pots and they were great - currently got the same brake setup as you but they came with yellow stuff pads so will see how these are before upgrading to ds2500s

I seem to remember they don't make them for Wilwood calipers, shame as I would love them in mine! Had them on previous cars and the DS2500 pads are great!
