Anyone know a cheap supplier of ZX pads for the AP 16" kit?

Hodge
PS I'll probably need some normal rear pads too soon...

Cool

Apparantly Scoobymania should be able to help you out, as they supplied Stef with his 16" AP brake kit, so should be able to provide the pads with it.
Does this help? (And I'm not even a Scooby owner...!).

Do they have to be AP pads?
I get mine from EBC directly.

Stef,

How did the EBC pads compare to the ZX's?
I was under the impression that the ZX's were particularly good (certainly seem so to me).
I'm assuming you've now tried both pads on both road and track now?
Are the EBC's cheaper?

I had ZX pads fitted with my AP kit and it was these that I used with great success at Donington.
There wasn't much pad left after mind you.
I have since been using EBC GreenStuff, which for normal road use and the occasional jaunt have done very well. These are about £55.
I will be using EBC YellowStuff at Donno on March 5th, so will be able to comment on these afterwards. These cost £75.
I will probably put EBC RedStuff in after Donno for road use, as these are the ones I think will be most suited to my driving style on the road.
Greens are OK. I've done about 6,000 miles over the last couple of months and they're about 2/3rds worn.
Get all that???

Stef.
