bnight replied to the thread Advice on setup for street and track!.My dealer has a price for this at something like a 360-70 Euro. The shape is the same but considering the price I guess this are aftermarket like OEM pads. My advice just order from the nearest Ford Dealership. (see full post)

- TeeLew replied to the thread Advice on setting up my car for gain confidence.I was speaking about forces, not clicks when saying 25/75%.
