Pads for OEM-discs

As my OEM-discs are not warping yet I will not change them to CTF-discs.
Anyway I need new pads for now. I want to go for Ferodo DS 2500 as I think they are good compromise. I liked the DS 3000 on track days, but like Pagid 14 they are wery harsh to the OEM disks.

Are there also 2500 Ferodo available for the rear? (OEM Evo 6 brakes)

If not, would do you think about the 2500 in the front and the 2000 in the rear?

Other recomandations? Squeeeeling is not a matter....

Discs and Pads shold fit to eachother. If they have different temperature-ranges you will not have good resulte. f.e: you take 3000 Ferodos with the OEM-Discs they will not stand the temperature the pads will work in. So they are gone very, very soon. Harsh means to me a high coef. like 0.5 or more. This works only with discs made for this. (Like you have, I guess)...As you know I only TALK about driving these days...

My rear RS 14 destroyed my standard rear discs in 3 session on track. Discs are full of scratches, even rear callipers went brown due to overheating. The pads still have loads of material left but I don't care anyway as I just had the Movit monobloc rear brake kit fitted with Porker discs.

Do it the right way

That´s way I want to find pads which fit to the temperatur-range of the OEM-discs. IMO Ferodo 2500 still do, 3000 or RS 14 do not, specialy not in the rear. Are the Evo5 (>1997) brakes in the rear same size as the Evo 6? Is the FCP 1282 the right size for the Evo6 rear-brakes?

Thanks.

I have Ferodo 2500s in the rear with standard brakes and discs and they are fine. The discs stay blue which they didn't really so with the OEMs even after a little cool-down run, but that is fine in my opinion. I forgot which was the right size, but call I.S.A. racing (www.isa-racing.de) cause that's where I got mine from and Andre also knows the right size.
