Padgid RS4, Ferodo FM1000 or Jurids

Brembo BBK. Looking at pad replacements for Street only. Currently using Brembo OEM Jurids. I've read somewhere that the FM1000 that Brembo OEM pads are different than getting a Fedoro FM1000 pad direct.

Also considering Porterfields RS4..

Any recent experiences with these pads. While less dust would be a +++++, just looking for a pad that will have a decent balance for street use only and play well with the Brembo rotor as well...

DS-2500's on street ?

My buddy has the 3000's on his track rat, and whenever he's on the street, they are noisy as hell

Yeah minimal noise while soft stopping and a small whistle at low speeds. But braking feel is improved.
