Thanks for the pics. Damn, those look really nice. Did you end up going with original spring rate format or did you opt for the 280/280? What are your driving impressions compared to your stock suspension? Thanks again.

My noise comes mainly from the front pads; AP S100 with no grease.

Did you bed your Ferodos in? I did the bed-in procedure at night and didn't see my car in daylight til the next morning...brake dust EVERYWHERE lol! It's fairly light though.

I bed them in, but not EXACTLY as described. It was supposed to be 25-30 four second long brake progressing with more speed but I didnt have time for all that, so did like half.

I think this is the key and thanks to ^^ for reminding me. I had installed them without lube and redid it all to lubed them up really good. I will update if they start to squeal. They did not bring any lube, I had to go and buy it.

I usually do 10 stops, drive 5-10 minutes, 10 stops. All with increasing speed. Pretty much the only place to do it is the highway at night and it's more fun than it should be...
