Only get them if you have the discs as well. I bought mine from PVD, (*think* they were £40 from PVD 2 years ago)

Mine work ok. Seem to work much better when warm. Much better than standard pads and keeps away the brake dust.
Not a superb pad, but a good upgrade from standard.

My brother refers to them as 'Greenshite'...
I'd personally go for a set of Mintex or Ferodo DS2000's (Black Diamond Predators are just these rebadged too...)

Yup as the others say ive ONLY heard bad things about them. Mintex 1144's would be a good option even though they can be a tad squeely. Whats the car used for?

Bought an Atra GTE brake setup from the scrappy.
Greenstuff pads
EBC Matching discs
New seals on the calipers.
Best brakes i've hit the ancors on, and i've driven cars with 4 pots too. (Craig Mays Corsa). Was so impressed with them (and all my friends were also).
I've heard both stories about them, good and bad. My experiences so far have all been good. Donna also has Greenstuffs on D5 and they work ok too.
