Hi
I would go with the NDX bluestuff as these are much better , or for the ultimate pads due on friday the new orangestuff pads , these will take even more abuse , front and rears for both types are £240.
Where did you get your yellow ones from ?

Cheers Ian

The blues are , the orangestuff is aimed at track use , but those that have them fitted say they work perfect on the road , it proves that the mild pads are no good for your style of driving , so you need something that can take the abuse , these two will
Cheers Ian

I have been using the blue NDX and love them. They have been very impressive. Great for normal driving as well as some serious abuse on track.

These would be a backward step from the yellows he has fitted now , the kevlar pads are the first step up from standard , I would recommend going for the blues

Have a google on the Carbotech XP8 pads if you are looking for something to match the NDX Blue / orangestuff..

I'm a huge fan of Carbotech pads, pricey but they're stopping power is incredible.
