I put Pagid on both my last Peugeots after reviews on here. Feel very budget and a little bit sticky. I don't think i will use again.
but will fit a jinyu tyre to your car because the only point of contact between your vehicle and the road surface is not important to you

As if Andrew is going to be able to tell the minute differences between pads.
"Feel very budget" wtf, explain how a pad "feels very budget" and stick for that matter.

Needed tyres fitting ASAP as my current were worn to the limit. Tell me what's better, illegal tyres or budgets fitted at any location.
I'll be honest, i don't trust the jinyu tyres but at the moment are doing a very good job. So why change them?

Steve,
I drive a lot, i'd like to think i know what a good quality pad feels like.
Did you not build a track car but not have the balls to take it out on track?
I rest my case.

I don't know, mine is worked out by my company. It changes every month depending on bonuses and commissions. I feel I pay a fair amount of tax and I can also still buy Michelin tyres and pay £15 a month for a joint bank account at Halifax including phone, travel and break down cover.

All this unnecessary spending on flashy tyres and bank accounts, knock it on the head and you too can enjoy the finer things in life.

What mods or performance packages do you think such a car and driving style would require?
I see lots of items advertised as fast road use, eg fast road cam, fast road pads, etc.
Now that I am driving on roads in a fast manner do you think these items are urgently required in my motor vehicle?
Thank you
