Any recommendations for uprated read pads for a 308 XJR (non-brembo calipers)?

Who sells them?

Is it worth upgrading from the standard Mintex jobbies?

Cheers

Personally I wouldn't bother upgrading rear pads, definitely not just the rear's

Yes upgrade the front and maybe all



I go for Ferrodo DS2500 pads

I put new discs and pads all round on my 98 XJR. They were EBC Red Stuff if memory serves correctly, cost over £500 quid. waste of money and time, they cooked themselves within 500 miles.

I went for Jaguar standard XJR discs and pads and have no complaints, about to upgrade the hoses to Goodridge but thats all I plan to do with the brakes.

It stops fine.
