Brake pads

Hello,
me again !
It's gonna be time for me to change my front brake system ( pads and
rotors ).
For the rotors, I have found what I want, made by Zimmermann.
For the pads, I want something for sport driving, but without noise.
I looked at Brembo and Ferodo catalog, apparently, nothing for the F56S
EBC have differents pads, but I have no feedback............
I saw an american company I know nothing about, Epic friction.
Do you know the products and what do you think about it ??
If, also, you've any feedback concerning the red EBC pads............
Thanks

Where did you find HP2000 pads for an S? All I can find are ones for the R56, but not F56

Here:
http://www.atomix-r.fr/
The Brembo ref is: 07.B314.47
I paid 113.40 euros for the 4 pads.
I will check in a few days if there is no mistake and if it is really the right stuff for the F56, as the dealer told me :D

Well, finally, I've decided to check....................................today !!
And as you can see, it fits.
I agree with you, when you look at the 2017 Brembo sport catalog, the F56 doesn't appear !!
http://www.atomix-r.fr/fichiers_site...2017-small.pdf
And the ref I gave you above ( ( 07.B314.47 ) is for R55 countryman and R50/53................
But, as you can see below, it's seems to be OK !

EOM:


Brembo:






Now, I have to buy new rotors !!

Does somebody know if the rear calipers of an F56S are commun with others models ( like R56, for example ) ??
Because I would like to purchase HP 2000 Brembo pads for my rear brakes and my retailer doesn't find anything !!
