Do a search, prob get more info.

I am in a similar position and after alot of reading of reviews and filtering through the yankie boards, I have come to the conclusion that it EBC Yellow pads for me.

Will order and get fitted in a month or two, prob write a review then.
gd luck

I always found mintex to be a good upgrade from oem, not bad on price either.

Never liked ebc stuff but mintex used to be the norm.

If you cannot stretch to ferodo ds pads, I would happily recommend textar pads from ecp. Made by pagid, I was simply unable to kill them even with the most absurd braking antics
