I think pagid are ok but they create so much dust! Im not a fan of EBC but then again I haven't tried them, just what i've heard with some people.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Black Diamond Predator pads, all round. You will not be disappointed

I've been using the Predator pads for a couple of years now, they give great performance and produce hardly any dust compared to the OEM pads.

Another recommendation for the predator pads. I fitted a full set with OE discs mid last year and they perform well, with much less brake dust.
