The OEM pads I got with the car sqealed and gave a squishy pedal (due to supposedly 'anti squeal' foam backing), so I replaced all 4 disc's (sorry guys, UK speak) opting for 'EBC Red-Stuff' trackday pads. These squealed so much the supplier upgraded them for Ceramics, which are OK and stop superbly. However, I've gone through the fronts in just over 9K - I do tramp on though.
