Question Front brake pads

Hi guys, need to get some new frant brake pads for classic MY99, seen a few threads about green stuff being no good for the scooby and people recommend the Ferodo D2500 pad but i've been told this is not for road use.

Is there anythig else out there that is road legal and i could buy or you'd recommend ? maybe black diamond ??

Wll you could always go for EBC Redstuff Ceramic from the link above.

Got to admit I'm a sucker for good pads, had Pagid RS42-1 Black and just went back to Ferodo DS2500's front and rear.
Awesome stopping then OEM

Both are fast road/occasional track use pads that work well from cold.

Talking bollox methinks

Ferodo and Pagid meet and exceed regulation 90 specs.
Paired up with Goodridge SS lines and decent dot 4 fluid and your laughing.

The box does say for racing only but most of us have used them at some point on here and not suffered any problems. If they are not road legal why do ferodo make DS3000s?

The prodrive upgrade pads as ds2500's so I doubt very much they are not road legal.
