    Welcome on board!

    I am running the Tarox 6-pots as well.
    Are you satisfied with the hawk pads?

    Hi Thomas,

    I have switched to Ferodo DS2500 now and they work really well. I had to modify them to fit though, as they were too thick to just fit straight in. I used a belt sander to remove some of the pad material. I really like the Tarox but there aren't many pads available.

    Mark,

    I run Ferodo DS2500 as well.
    My calipers look somewhat different
    (disks are slotted only meanwhile)
    Are your pad's Number FRP3078?
    If so, I found out that you can use FRP3084 as well (with a bit of base plate modifications), those pads are available in a much wider range, both Ferodo mixtures and other manufacturers.
