do any people on these threads use these pads ,i have been trying howards rb74 but have gone back to the bgt kevlar carbons which are porterfields they are very dusty but have very good bite ,i also tried his rp104 pads at calder had to brake at 300 m as the bloody pads would not stop me ,then tried the porterfields again and went back to braking at 100m this time ,was going to try also ebc greens but they smell like cats piss ,is there any other pads you guys can think of that are the ducks guts ,my pad sizes are frp 216 and back are frp201 or 218 ,and its for a car that weighs 960 kilos thanks for any help

Try some DS2500 Ferodos.
Those #'s you gave are good #'s for them.
I'd go with FRP218 or 219 for the rear depending on your radial depth. 201 is harder to get.....I know I tried to get 2 sets last week and they don't have any in Oz. They are more expensive than 218 or 219 anyway

216 will set you back under $185 and 218 or 9 are slightly cheaper.

If you think you need to go further than that you can try DS3000.
Though I think I got the last 2 sets of 219's last week so they are waiting on stock.

Pagid RS4-2 is the other option but double the price.
