[QUOTE="oscar, post: 160141, member: 2757"] see the only reason i've went over to the ds2500's is that a lot of the driftland cars & CS.net track guys seem to swear by the ds2500's for track and fast road use. even the ferodo site says that they are good for track days, frictional co-efficient's and temperature ranges seem about right 0.41 FCE / 20°-500°C WR .. wheras the ds3000's are more raw track use and i think ds3000's would be overkill for a little twingo being tracked don't you think? especially when the ds3000's are 0.48 FCE / 200°-650°C WR. would certainly struggle to see those sorts of temperatures as i wouldn't be giving it the beans on track, i'll only be going out for fun! no risks taken lol. to convert the rears to discs or not? waste of money as it won't increase rear braking force, but will look pretty. very limited on shoe selection mind you lol. i suppose the conversion to rear discs would eliminate such a crap choice in brake shoes although the handbrake situation will be an interesting weekend of fiddling around i'm going to order these up at the end of january and i'll show you all pictures on fitment. hopefully the dimensions etc were all correct and they fit! 50/50 on the rear conversion though, but williams pads & discs are a definate :D [/QUOTE]
