Brakes

[P1nfl182]

Just a quick question DS2500 or the Mintex 1144.. On Brembo HC discs...
And what set up for the rear do you recommend?

 

[.Stevo.C.]

DS2500 seem to be highly recommended on here and just standard rear pads and discs are sufficient enough.

I've just upgraded to brembo HC's and ds2500. I love them.

Standard rears.

I have mintex 1144 and don't rate them at all, I would rather renault-supplied pads TBH. I'm running them with Brembo HC's and although they feel ok under normal use, heavy braking from high speed and you easily find the limit of their friction. They faded on track sooner than I expected too. I've not tried any other "performance" pads on clio but I would consider the Ferodo DS2500 to be superior, but also more expensive.

IMO the best pad for under £100 I have tried is EBC yellow (no haters please if you have not tried any, these are better than green/redstuff)
