Legend: I've never tried Ferodo pads. I was trying to avoid having to go to race only pads with a dedicated set of rotors for track days. Hard compound pads don't work well with no heat in them. Scared myself pretty good once at the end of my street going right out into the intersection like the car was on ice. But that may be the way I have to go for now.

Charlie: Ya I get my use out of them . To bad it's short lived. It takes longer to do the brake job and bed in the new pads than it does to wear the pads out! I'd love to try some brakes like your new ones.

Brandon: The C5 setup would indeed be a big step up. However I had my wheels custom made several years ago and they can't move in or out even 1/4" front or rear. If I do brakes I have to buy new wheels at the same time.
