    DS2500 Pads

    I am after some DS2500 pads for my beast and I'm hoping to have them fitted and bedded in by the weekend if all goes well, however they seem pretty difficult to source as they are for the 968CS caliper.

    Does anbody know of anyone who stocks this?

    Corey? He sorted me out with some for my 996s 3 days before the last 'ring trip.

        Thanks guys.

        I dropped Corey a PM earlier on this morning but I couldn't be sure that he stocked that particular brake pad for the 968CS calipers.

              I got mine from Raceshopper.com in the US:
              £82 for the fronts (FCP560H)
              £63 for the rears (FCP451H)

              These were for the RS2, which should be the same brakes as yours (968CS)

                  Espen, as far as I am aware the RS2 and 968CS calipers are slightly different.

                  Dave, I shall email Beth.

                  Thanks guys.

                    Hi Rob
                    The only difference between the RS2 and 968CS calipers as far as I knew was that yours are painted black?

                      Hmmmm, interesting!

                      Espen, is that price for a pair or each brake pad? If its for a pair I shall definatly be investing.

                      I still haven't found anyone handy with a lathe to turn down my discs yet Dan.

                        Can't you fit spacers under the caliper instead?

                            Bry, I have absolutely no clue when it comes to brakes.

                            How would this work?

                              What size disc do you have?
                              What size do you want them to be?
