i just ordered from these guys a week ago, next day delivery Very helpful.

As to the pads, Ifitted DS2500 with new standard discs and can notice a difference beyond the usual new for old.

Have done a few hundred miles and they have inspired confidence will see how they fair when used in anger!!!

bill @ badger 5. good sevice and good price:thumbsup:
 
I paid £93+vat for DS2500s brembo fitment from Badger Bill a couple of months ago.
 
if i wanted to just upgrade the pads would i need to upgrade my discs or are the standard ones fine?

My experience has shown that uprated/drilled/grooved disks don't really offer anything over the OEM items..they just tend to cost more and look nicer! Getting decent pads is far more important.

This view is shared by many people I know who own performance cars, but I'm sure there will be people on here who will disagree.
 
I was thinking about the DS2500 but fear they maybe a little hard for the discs and warp them.
 
that was my thoughts aky. my rear discs and pads need changin but my fronts are fine. do i go with original discs and ferodo ds2500 pads or different disc and then also my next dilema is whether that combo will be fine or do i have to upgrade my fron pads at the same time??
