Thanks.
As I have mentioned before, my favorite is:

EBC Yellowstuff with Castrol SRF

Couple of notes:

-Go through the proper bed in procedure (very important with these pads, cannot stress that enough)
-Drive fast, but don't abuse them on the track, they are an "in-betweener" pad, treat them as so.
-Used them with success on the M2, R56 Mini, Cayman S, E92 M3, FR-S, etc. So a pretty wide range of light to heavier cars. I run fast and respectable lap times with these pads, and then drive around town in peace and quiet, love them.

IMHO, these pads are highly underrated. Reason, probably because most people drive them on the track like a full race pad, which is something they are not.
