FERODO DS2500 Reviews?

Does anyone here have any experiences with these pads ? I can't decide between the DS2500 and Project Mu's B-Forces... My car is a daily driver and I plan to auto-x in the near future.

DS2500 one of the best dd/track orientated pads. They should last over a few sessions before fading. The B-forces are more toward street and will take much less braking to fade.

I find the ds2500 better value.

(ps I have a front set you can get for cheap since I upgraded to AP racing kit )

Agree with the above. The Ferodos are more expensive than other pads, but they are hands down the best performing pads I've ever used. My tires over heat long before the pads do. And they are quite low dust too considering they are a light track duty pad.

I have them for my DD/AutoX car. They're loud, but if you can handle a bit of squeaking, they are a great pad.

They shouldn't be loud. Mine are silent.
