Default Brake pad advice please

Hi all,

I was about to buy Pagid "Black" pads today, but it turns out that only the Fronts are availabe now. Do you reckon it would be ok to buy Pagid Fronts and Ferodo rears ? Is that safe ? Has anyone done this (or similar) ?

Many thanks

There is probably not much difference in friction levels between PB and DS2500 so it will be ok. A lot of people upgrade fronts and leave rears alone anyway without probs. Why not put DS2500 all round.

Speaking to Alyn about this when I had Pagids in the front and DS2500 on threars, he said absolutely no problems about mixing the front and rears with these compounds

How much are the Pagids? are they for a classic or newage?
