go for the Ultimax discs because of there speradic grooves and how many there are you dont get the sound of the pads on and off the grooves that you get with the gold anodised EBC ones
REMOVED
match these up with some of the yellows....dont even go down the redstuff route alot of problems on forums and such like is that they are not aware what pad material is the best choice for there model and driving style and that matched with local factors just supplying what they have on the shelf....this is was on the scoobynet site might help some

Greenstuff - Fast street for lighter cars - AF44/35 (Not Impreza or EVO etc)on box end
(base code E 344) Street Legal to R 90 regulations. Greenstuff is designed for cars up to 200 bhp and weights up to around 2 tons. For smaller hot hatches this new Green material is very impressive and bites hard from cold.

Redstuff fast street (not a race or trackday pad ) – . For all sizes and weights of car.
Latest compound code shows AF88/26 on box end (base code E 388) and is street legal to ECE R90 regulations. This is the latest compound of the Red family for fast street use with reduced (and easy to wash off dust) but not really for track use

Yellowstuff fast street and trackday - code AF93/94 on box end (base code DM 1793) Street legal to ECE R 90 regulations. Just starting to come through Surface Scorched now which means these bed in FAST.(EBC toast the surface in a special infra red tunnel to take away the bed in fade and loss of track time bedding in new pads for you)

If you buy a set and it doesnt say PRE BEDDED on the box end label, take 300-400 miles steady highway driving then start to hit them harder for 15 – 20 stops from 60 to 10-15 mph until you get them really hot and then let them cool overnight. DONT track them out of the box unless the box end label says PRE BEDDED OK ????. This is your fast street and occasional trackday pad. For all sizes and weights of car.

hope this helps

I have dba on all 4 corners and ferodo ds 2500 and so far have been spot on no squeeling and relatively low dust and most importantly mash your face into the windscreen to make it look like your doing an impression of Garfield:disgusted:
