Used them both Ferodo DS 2500 for me .... Thumbs up

But I'm running rear DS3000 now as they last much longer with DS 1.11 fronts best combo I've personally used for Track work by loads ...not cheap though Thumbs up

PS the above ^ I'm using are Race pads & so say no good for Road ....I find them both great even from cold & my cars used lots on the road Thumbs up

With the wavy's on you can go straight up to a race pad like the DS3000's Day is using, or XP8's/XP10, Mintex F4R, etc - they'll work fine from cold with those discs, that was a lot of the idea of them, you can quite happily use race compound pads even on a car that does daily work through rain and puddles.

Cheers bud. The car doesnt do rain. Wavy discs are a good idea like. Mine are blue atm. But gonna run some cooling to them i think. If that doesnt work im gonna upgrade to a bigger set up on the rear.

You'll find they won't warp anyway unless you get them insanely hot, but obviously you don't want the heat building up to far just for wear concerns - they compromise on heat capacity just by virtue of the weight saving/design - but if you can get some good ducting in it's usually pretty effective as they'll pump the cold air across the pad surface, strange as it sounds some harsher pads will help as you'll reduce the pressure required for the same bias.
