Author Message   Steveford Posted on Monday, July 29, 2013 - 06:26 pm:        Any input on Galfer pads for the front? I went from Ferodo to EBC and now it's time for another set. I'd go with Ferodo again but it doesn't look like anyone is carrying these any longer here in the US. I wonder what happened to that company? Think I found some Ferodos - it's really odd how Ferodo went from being the dominant player to just about extinct in the US.

They won't leave a deposit on the disc like the stock pads do. Go for the sintered pads rather than the organic compounds though.   Steveford Posted on Wednesday, July 31, 2013 - 08:16 pm:        Thanks, I ordered some Braking so I'll see how those stack up.   Steveford Posted on Sunday, August 18, 2013 - 08:53 am:        Trojan, Good recommendation for the Braking, they feel very similar to the Ferodo. There's more of a linear feel than the EBC had. I also found what nearly killed me: a plastic bag somehow got sucked into the front caliper!
