Mintex 1144s. I have them on my Brembos. Worth every penny. DS2500s are old news now, used them before too.

Do you have a part number or link to where to buy from ? Thanks

See Ferodo Eco-Friction Green brake pads: https://www.ferodo.co.uk/products/light-vehicles/eco-friction-brake-pads.html

"Already fitted as Original Equipment on Mercedes-Benz C-Class since March 2014 and Audi A4 since September 2015"

So impressed I'm now running these Ferodo Eco-Friction Green brake pads on our 8P RS3, 8J TT, and SQ5

And you'll be amazed at the low £s price...

Mintex M1144 - MDB2271 to fit the LCR Brembos. Cost around £120 but worth it over 2500s.

Ferodo used to list something else for track , then DS2500 was rally ,
listed as track , light race now

now DS3000 listed as rally upwards, but has 200 deg C low temp limit
'not for road use warning '

Used DS2500 for last years, with jumbo kit , no particular concerns , very dusty compound [ probably by design to dump heat]
might need a little warming to get the full performance , stone cold slam on , perhaps a little exciting , predictable at speed / hot

NB-compound may age , or degrade with protracted use , ie road , noted lost performance, swapped over when half worn, improvement , but , could of been compound change , may be glazing , benefits from hard use . disc's not showing much distress [gen brem drilled]

Personally , not minded to change any time soon , fitted front and rear [ rear std brakes] hand brake ok works on hills ,
