What are the best brake pads ?

Ferodo DS2500s - I think they are about £180 though?

Good call, they are definitely over the OP's budget though

 

EBC redstuff are good value for money.

 

Have a look at the options on our site if you like

Please only post one topic, the question will still be answered and if it ends up the wrong section the moderating team will move it.

Endless pads are worth considering, but Ferodos are good!

Welcome to the forum - get a post up in the intro section

 

I know you've said your budget is £160 - but you can't beat the Ferrodo's - and I don't think you will find them cheaper in the UK than here

Haven't tried the Endless myself - but going on other's reports wouldn't bother either

got endless on mine

i dont rate endless at all, my rx7 had these fitted when i bought it and they faded quite a lot

 

im with dixcel now and have been for almost 3 years. the brakes are superb on track with the RE-01 pads, but i wouldnt recommend for road use at all. the Z range is great for the road and can still be used on track if you like.
