Post Brembo - Pads...??

Hi,

I have the 4Pot Brambo's...and am using Ferrodo DS2000 pads...will i notice a difference if i change to the DS2500 pads?

I feel att he moment i have to really push the brake pedal to get the car to stop..though not sure if this is related to the pads or not..

I will never buy DS2000 again... if pads are cold its like trying to stop the train. Next should be Pagid blue or yellow.

they no longer make ds2000 so you have little choice in this anyway..................ds2500 is an improved compound however.................
