I don't think it makes much difference on the back, unless you change the disks and calippers, too. Most of the braking is done by the fronts I think. Anyone else?

what pads do you run up front and what do you use your car for?? driving style??
normally you would run a similar compound rear pad to match the front and help keep the car "flatter".........

at the moment brake setup is all standard, but wot ever pads i get at the back will be on the front. Looking at getting a set of P1 dics and 4 pots with new pads all round. Just need a set of pad asap for the back as they are worn.

To add just use the car for every normal day (with a bit of speedin now and again :-) driving no tracks days.
thanks
