im using pagid 286mm discs from a corsa D and mintex 1144 pads, not the cheapest pad out there but work great on my corsa B.

Both Pagid and Mintex OEM pads are very good, I personally run Mintex 1144 on the front and standard Mintex on the rear, that's with rear discs though.

2500's are very good, 3000's are miles better if you brake heavy. But eiter are very expensive really, set for my Clio will be £110, set of pagid oem are about £20. If OP is only doing road miles I'd save £90 and fit oe spec

The DS2500's chewed my discs up proper good, worked well though. As Edges 58 says, OEM Pagid/Mintex are the way to go for road use.

found mintex 1144 pads to be much better, the ferodo pads cracked and came off the backing plate after around 5000 miles. destroyed the discs too.
