i'm looking for ferodo ds2500 pads for either the R53 JCW brakes or the 2007 R56S. i saw an older post (circa feb 2007) saying these were available in this size but i have yet to find any online. anyone know where/if i can get these? also, any slotted rotors yet for the R56?

Call Raceshopper.com

I got my DS2500s for stock size pads from them (as well as the DS3000).

They were quite helpful.

i'm looking for the R56, which is not the same as our R53. i emailed Raceshopper.com and they did not have any for the '07 yet.

just to clear things up, i have a set of 2007 R56 front calipers waiting to go on as soon as i can get some good pads to install with it.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here and take the high road. I am aware of the differences and perhaps that didn't come across in my post.

Now, I just thought I'd let you know about a place that carries Ferodo pads since I had ordered from them and maybe they would be able to help you.

You're welcome.
