You won't go wrong with the DS2500 pads. Much stronger stopping power than the OE brake pads and no noticeable fade, and I've also found, less brake dust too.
Obviously had stock pads fitted from the factory, changed at 10k miles (for stock pads again). At 20k miles, second set of stock pads changed for DS2500 pads and grooved (ATE Power disc style elliptically grooved) Brembo discs. Speak to Badger5, (see forum sponsors) as he makes them.
This combination (along with a Motul hi-temp brake fluid change) was a total transformation... really stamp hard on the brakes and it almost feels like you're getting air under the back wheels! Well, not quite, but you get the picture... it's a HUGE improvement over the stock set up.
I'm now on 33k miles. The pads have lasted approximately 3k miles longer than the stock pads, and I've probably got another 3-5k miles left in the discs (the groove doubles up as a visual wear indicator - new thickness = 28mm, min thickness = 26mm, groove depth 1mm either side
) so disc wear is slightly more.
I've read a few posts about squeeling Brembo's... but I've never had that problem with mine, certainly not with the DS2500 pads

Ds2500, great pads, I have total faith in mine, just be sure to use copper grease and bed them in properly and u will be sorted.
