1155s are closest equivalent to ds2500s. Good pads

^wear rates are shocking though, down to the backing plates after 1 day at bedford!

Stick to the standard brakes if it's mainly a road car. If you're driving a lot on track and being really serious about reducing your lap times then your can't really compromise.

Standard pads for road, ds2500 for track and road, and then if it's a pure track car, there are loads of compounds (nice and pricey mind).

so the mintex ones will be fine for road use (hard road use mind)

Won't last as long though, so possibly false economy?

If it was me I'd just cough up the extra £30 and go for something you know is highly recommended than end up having to buy twice.
