Alright. Will probably need new brakes soon. Previous owner fitted mountune discs and pads. Might fit the discs again or go with the ebc turbos. But the pads I’m not too sure.

Has anyone tried both yellow stuff and ds2500? Which is better?

I see the ds2500 are better for track but what about everyday road use as I don’t take my car to tracks.

Yellow stuff might be worth a try for under £200 all around

Because mine came with mountune brakes I have no clue how they compare to standard.

The ebc could be similar to mountunes but guess I won’t find out if anyone’s tried them to compare.

I like the mountune ones. Never squeaked. Just curious to see if the yellow stuff would be an upgrade from them or even if the ds2500 pads are worth it

Why can’t I post links on here anymore, so annoying.

Does anyone know if there is any difference between the EBC GD, USR and BSD discs apart from the different slots and dimple patterns?
