Well, I'm glad oe where obtained at a sensible price in that case.

So are we to assume the previous set of tc pads are of a better pad compound...?  Certainly the tc set I have here now fitted to the car as astop gap until new discs are fitted are a worse pedal feel than the previous set that came with the car, which where of less feel than oe.....  Huh

Driving TB's car briefly to the curry house was not a good braking experience by comparison. The Tc pad "dead pedal" feel was very evident, and was as expected tbh..... Although mine currently are not quite as bad as TB's where then. Although they worked obviously. Maybe Tc pads don't take the punishment so well?

Anyway, oe for me next.


Maybe Jimbobs pads had an easier more sensible life?   Undecided


That's exactly why I've now got EBC Green Stuff pads/Vx discs all round on ours!

Comparatively expensive maybe - but well worth the money. Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up!
Much less dust too! Wink
