Question

Have had Pagid blues on the for the last 12 months - excellent pads (std disks and 4 pots - I know, but don't see the point in shelling out for an AP Racing kit or whatever!)

Should I go for Pagid blues again or look at the Mintex 1155s or Ferodo DS2500s?

Anyone know a good online supplier? (local dealer cheerfully fitted std Subaru pads without asking so they are going to fit whatever I get for me)

thanks in advance

Go for Pagid RS15's, awesome pads! Just checked the pad wear whils having the tyres changes, and they're still going strong too.

And they stop you like they're drip feeding superglue to the disk.

They may be, but as a road use pad, they work VERY well. They bite well when cold.

How many miles have you had from them ? I've just got about 8k from the RS 4-2s (Pagid Blues)

Rough guess, about 10K so far. that's with plenty of fast road use, plenty of braking, but no track day use.
