I know ivor on here swears by these. How good are thay for normal road driving tho? I mean are thay made for track use?

Any one using them?

Yeah, I do........................  :tongue:


My 'lil ears pricked when I read this thread title!!  :grin:


They are great pads, but they're technically not road legal as apparently they should bite TOO MUCH to pass the MOT.  The old GTi-6 got through one with them in, though!!  (Would only take half hr to swap them over week before the MOT, anyway. :wink:)

I didn't really notice any more dust than usual.

I know I always bang on about these pads, but they are superb, Rich.  I might even try the DS3000's next!!!  :smug:
