yup the ds2500 are fine on fast road, my NQSBBK saved me on the motorway the other week, was daydreaming a bit got to close to car in front they all slammed on... :driver: had to go cadence braking but the bite from the calipers/pads did the job. if i had been on standard brakes i would have hit the car in front.

Would that effect anything? Also would these drilled discs eat pads much quicker? It does seem so!
