Smile Pad Recommendations for Prodrive/Alcons

Looking at replacing pads in the 330mm Prodrive/Alcon brake kit and just wondering what other people use or would recommend?
I've heard these disks come with Ferodo DS2000 pads but not sure how true this is?
The pad I'm thinking of going for is the Ferodo DS2500.Would this be a suitable pad or is it too harsh for the disk?
I only use my car on the road,no trackdays or the like....
A quick answer would be much appreciated!!

Thanks in advance

Nick

Have you tried the Danny Boy 'Chocolate specials' i have heard they are great and if it all goes t#ts up and they dont work at least you can eat them.

I can feel i'm going to be busy this weekend fitting these bl##dy Alcon brakes and intercooler

Check list for you Nick.

1=Beers Chilled
2=Carpet Hoovered
3=Pizza @ the ready
4=More beers chilled
