What pads are you after for them?
I went straight to carbotech for the buggy ones, but might be overkill if it's just road use...

I just bought a set of 1155 mintex pads from them direct, bout 95 - 100 quid i think. Maybe 1144, would be better for more road and a little track use, think they are a bit cheaper aswell.
