Correct Pads For Ed30
« on: August 09, 2011, 06:15:12 pm »
Guys.

I am about to purchase new pads all round and want to make sure i am purchasing the correct pads as it mentions ate calipers and i am not sure what that means.

Also it does not give me the option to purchase the same pads for the rear?

Thanks

I spoke to JKM who advised ferodo don’t actually make the ds performance range for the rear. They mentioned running oem rear pads with ferodo up front.

Are there any other alternatives to OEM for the rear that will give an improved but balanced braking pattern.

A common and praised rear setup is the S3 Caliper & disc.  Giving better performace using OEM parts.  Im sure there will be reviews on the forum  :happy2:

I plan to do the S3 rear setup next time the rears need changing

You'll get front and back EBC for the price of those you posted
