| Brake advise needed please I have to get a new set of front pads ( for octy vRS) & I have foud on the odd occasion the brakes seem to the week link when 'pressing on'  I am going to try uprated pads, but am not sure if I should get front & rear uprated pads or just the fronts, can anyone tell me if using uprated pads on front & std on rear is ok or just a stoopid idea?  After looking through various threads on here I think I am going to give the Ferodo DS2500 a try (So thanks to all those who said they are the ones to go for  ), can anyone reccomend a supplier for these?Demon tweakes do them for £190 F & R & I know demon tweakes arent usually the cheapest place to buy but do give good service, I just need to compare some prices. Cheers |

| As long as you change in pairs it doesnt matter which way around you do it. I changed to DS2500's over a year ago and they are hardly gone. Got mine from DT, where we get a 10% discount. Was cheapest at the time, but times change, so check around. Make sure you order the right ones though as the part numbers can be slightly confusing (IIRC). |
