My clubsport is due for a pad and disk change . It only has the standard sized discs front and rear 296&286 i think .. Which disc would be suited the best i do a fair bit of hard street driving and the usual hard cruises .. I was thinking the DBA 4000 series front and rear but are they worth the extra $ 100 odd over say a set of longlife slotted ?
And alsowhat pads would be best i was looking at ebc greenstuffs front and rear but have heard and read about them glazing the discs , my requiremnts are as littl dust as possible ..
cheers mark

The FF pads are an excellent sport pad as Datto mentioned.

You will get dust from any pad that works well.
Thats good Friction!
The dust off the FF pads hoses off very easily though. Unlike some others.

If you have never had a problem with brake shudder at high speed/temps or don't plan on doing any regular club track days then you probably don't need the 4000's.
