Which brake pads? 2007 Focus ST-3

[GG89]

New discs and pads all round, I think I'm going to go with standard discs with some better pads. car wont be tracked so I'm not spending a fortune.

Can anyone advise?

I went with Green Stuff on my Fiesta ST which were way better than whatever was in there before. About £106 for the full set of pads.

Ferodo ones are better but also hugely more expensive.

Performance friction work very well for fast rd & are also sensible money

It's a total minefield I've actually got a headache from reading about different pads.

From my experience, the Ford OEM stuff is pretty good. The Streetmasters are a bit better, but after that you're really looking at caliper upgrades (e.g.K-sports).

Ford ones for normal road use are perfect.

These are the ones I used.

I never had a problem with brake fade or anything with the oem brakes.

I needed some quick the other week. Got a set from a local factors can't remember which make they were.

Don't just don't they are feckin rubbish. The car now feels like I've put classic mini brakes on it.
