DS2500 - isn't this primarily for track?
Do you have the shims on at all?

DaveB mentioned to me that the pad compound on the DS2500s have rubber in, so on track days when the pads get hot the rubber melts away and the pads fall apart :rolleye:
his advice is Ferodos for fast road/light track, but if you're going heavy the Pagid RS4-2s.
berg:
yup as Sub says, the DS is fine for fast road use but are no good for hardcore trackday action
Tfsi_Mike:
The rs4-2 were fantastic when bedded in :driver:

At muckipup...I am on 996 fronts over 330x28....so same width as what the caliper is designed for. Think I may try taking them out.

For the users of the nqsbbk:
It appears that Pagid doesn't sell the Pagid RS29 Yellow compound in the UK: http://www.pagid-brake-pads.co.uk/car-brake-pads/porsche-boxster.html
But this is sold in Germany: http://www.nimex-motorsport.de/?category=products;subID:183&sessID=q2fi40a40qr5t8scr333hfp890
So if you are after some great daily drive and track day pad look no further (not cheap though). As soon as my current Pagid RS 4-4 (second) pads need changing I will go with RS 29.
