Was asking this question in my other thread but no answer...
anyway, can I use DS2500 pads on Subaru OEM discs or do I HAVE TO go to put performance discs?

Are the 2500 not too hard for the OEM discs?

ds2500 is a fairly non-aggressive pad so should find no probs with O.E discs...........got lots of customers with this set-up without issue!!

DS2500 are great pads but will run hotter than the OEM discs can take. Push them (eg track day) and you'll bu99er stock discs.
