ignore comments like 'ive heard redstuff take ages to warm up bla bla.....

I use redstuff and they are fantastic in all uses. Mintex extremes are very good as well.

ds2500 I have used and are good but aree a lot more than the redstuff and mintex and not much better.

mintexx 1144 are the best pad I have used but no better than the redstuff really and they squeal a lot.

I have just fitted new redstuff on the corsa, says it all really.

I've got Red Stuff. As David says, the take ages to warm up comments strictly true. If you plan to do agressive driving with lots of harsh braking most breaks will want warming up!

I have Mintex X-Treme in the BM.

Very good, but a tad squeaky

i would avoid greenstuff pads, i actually found standard pads better in my old calibra turbo

Most of the guys in the 750 motor club hot hatch championship use the ferodo pads
