Default Which pads and where from

Just wondering on peoples opinions on brake pads?
So far I've had OE's, then greenstuff and then AS performance's OE+, all of which didn't last that long (18 months tops) so who recomends what? and where's the best place (read cheapest) to get them from?

Thanks
Paul.

I got a set of OMP 'Road & Sport' pads which work up to 600 degrees C - for about £25 for a front set for my 4-pots. There's a big OMP dealer on ebay at the moment doing them.

No complaints at the moment, and I'm pretty heavy on the brakes around my local backroads, although I've not done any trackdays with them. But from the sounds of it, you're after the same thing I am - decent performance on the road, at a reasonable price...I wouldn't pay anywhere near £100 for a set of pads, let alone nearer £150 as some on here do.
