    Recommended rear brake pads...

    Just looking at changing my rear brake pads in preparation for my Nurburgring trip and was wondering what people recommend, ok the rear pads don't really do an awful lot of work...

    K-tec Ultimax Brake pads are £30... Blurb reads:
    "Ultimax brake pads have been chosen for all our brake kits as they perform exceptionally well, even from cold, are very resilient to pad glazing, have a very slow wear rate and produce very little brake dust."

    Does that mean that basically they are standard pads?

    GSF rear pads for R5 GT Turbo (Textar?!?) are £18.10

    What other options are there? Can't seem to find any pagid pads...

    Standard pads for rear matey and something decent for the front like Ds2500 or the carbon lorraine jobbies

    I've put the Texstar pads on the rear of mine and they're fine.
