Has anyone used these and would they recommend them?
Price seems very good and I seem to recall someone saying they were very good pads, if you have any info on these, please let me know.

I got these from yb racing on eBay and had them for about 18 months. They work well and have a good bite from cold. I don't abuse the pads or track my car, but in the limited hard braking I do do they've not faded yet.

Yes these pads are great, and at £45 a real bargain. A very good buy, much improved over the standard setup.  THat's good because you're fitting them! LOL ;-) together with black coated,drilled MTEC Front discs, will give you a call in the morning! Mick

Two days ago I had someone pull out in front of me in the city (dry day). I was doing about 25-30mph and I did a full on emergency stop to avoid sideswiping them. It's the first time I've felt the ABS kick in, when not in the snow. The brakes would have been fairly cold at the time as I'd just got going. Cheers Gunzi. What's the pedal feel like? Mine just feels completely wooden at the moment, they're horrible and I think it's the pads/discs on there at the moment (Well I hope it is!)

Pedal feel is good. I've got dot 5.1 in at the moment, halfords finest and it seems to do the job fine. I also have done this "mod" which helps the pedal feel too.
