Anyone used these yet? What will they be like for commuting as well as hooning?

I've heard they're good too, but nobody I have spoken to has first hand experience

The K-Sport kit I am interested either comes with either

the original K-Sport pads (+£0)
EBC Bluestuff (+£99)
Ferodo DS2500 (+£181)

Now I've heard the K-Sport pads are pretty crap, and have been told the Bluestuff are good for both fast road and track (ScoobyDoo69 and McHaMmEr seem to confirm this).

Now seeing they are half the price of DS2500s, is there a good reason not to go for them?

Definitely go for the Bluestuff pads if you're going to buy the k-sport kit, £99 is a decent price and they are far superior to the k-sport pads. Are you buying the 8 pot 330mm kit?

Yep that's the one. Decided on the K-Sport over the Wilwood 330mm in the end..

The EBC bluestuff is deinetely better than DS2500.

Guys on the EVO forum have had very good results, on the X as well, its a superb road pad and seems to compete well against the carbotech XP8/XP10 but gives of less dust.

Sounds just what I'm after

Mine arrived yesterday.. will be pairing them with 8 pot calipers and 330mm discs.

Am away in Sweden with work next week but will write up a review once I am back and they are fitted
