Pads recommendation?

So my OEM pads aren't really up to the job, so looking to upgrade.

What do people suggest?

Please bare in mind I don't use the car every day, so not looking to spend a fortune. Also discs and pads were new last year and only only around 2500 miles use, so would prefer pads that will work with OEM discs.

Also all 4 calipers were refurbed last year, so that is not the cause of my problems!

i had yellow stuff pads on the civic and they took so much heat and stopped great on my standard discs.

by the way what are the symtoms of your problems?

cue the illness or retarded jokes.

I have the same setup at Mart but the Ferrodo's are highly rated or ask Garry about the Carbotech ones, did you see the glowing disks :shock:
