I run DS2500 on my AP setup and cannot rate them highly enough. Good cold bite which remains after many hard stops.

just about to receive brembo discs from bremboshop online.....£47 each!!
Spoken to Circuit Supplies in Leighton Buzzard about DS2500 pads, but they don't have the wear sensors. Suddenly nervous about bypassing them. Can I do it at the wheel end? Zip

I can't confirm your part numbers but I have been advised the part numbers might be as follows;
Brakes 4D0698151L (I assume these are discs?) Brake Lining 1J0698451L (I assume these are pads?) Which is of course different to what is listed above...  I need to order some for my 2001 S8 but would like to clarify part numbers prior to placing my order. Thanks & kind regards, -=Glyn=-
