Hope someone with experience can help? Its with regards Feroddo Ds2500. So maybe only UK owners? Ive ordered some DS2500 pads for the front and rear and been sent what i believe are the wrong ones. Now i know for a Fact that some owners have run them without issues and have been to teh ring on them etc with good results, but, and here is the but... On calling the UK distributor this morning, they insist that Ferodo dont do a Pad to fit and want me to send back what they supplied as they wont fit. They do fit, but are about 10mm shy of pad material and dont reach the center of the disk. Very odd, so my question is: SDoes anyone know for a fact what ferrodo DS2500 pad part numbers they have used with sucess front and rear? As a side note, does anyone else have any pads to recomend from experience with these cars? I chose DS2500 as ive used them with success on many powerfull cars aso they were my first choice for this one, but im willing to bow to other owners greater experience with the M5. __________________ Best Regards, Stu Drives: A 2001 Silver E39 M5.
