The DS2500 compound brake pad is designed for low- and high-speed braking efficiency, reduced stopping distances and the consistent brake pedal feel that racing riders need — first time, every time.
For your 2007+ R56 MINI Cooper Hatchback and for 2008+ R55 MINI Cooper CLUBMAN. The fronts are Cooper only, while the rears will fit both the Cooper and Cooper S.
The S front pads will also fit 2002-2006 R50 MINI Cooper and R53 Cooper S Hatchbacks and 2005-2008 R52 MINI Cooper and Cooper S WITH the JCW Sport Brake Kit option (with the Red Calipers in front).
Ferodo’s DS2500 racing brake pads represent a new generation of friction material that’s low in compressibility, ensuring a firm pedal while providing great disc and pad life.
As shown in the graph, the DS-2500 material has a friction level of approximatively 0.50 which remains constant at any speed and at any temperature that the brake system is working at.
These pads were developed with characteristics that make them perfect for track days, including a consistent coefficient of friction (0.50) at any temperature, providing very predictable braking and great pedal modulation.
Combined with low wheel dusting and good noise characteristics, this product is the brake pad for the driver who needs the highest track-day braking performance.
Features include:
+ Race developed
+ Performs equally well on heavy and light cars
+ 20% less pad wear than competitive products
+ Minimal bedding-in, supplied ready to use
+ Disc Friendly
+ Consistent friction level with changing temperatures and speeds to give optimal pedal modulation
+ High friction level at low temperature (good cold braking)
+ High friction level at very high temperatures
+ 35% less compressability than competitive products (pedal feel)
+ Less noise for increased driving comfort
Ferodo DS2500 is a club race pad that can be used on the street and for light track use. This compound produces some noise on the street, but retains good cold friction, and has an MOT of around 1,000 degrees F. It also has 35% less compressibility than competitive products, giving it very good pedal feel and modulation characteristics. DS2500 has an average friction level of approximately (0.50) which remains constant at any speed, and at any temperature up to 1,000° F.
Select Fronts or Rears from the pull-down menu.
For improved pedal feel, take a look at the Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines.
Follow manufacturers bed-in procedure for proper operation.
If your brake wear warning light is illumninated, see replacement sensors.
MINI recommends the brake fluid be replaced every 2 years, more often if you track your car. See ATE Super Blue for replacement brake fluid. ATE Super Blue is a high quality performance fluid that will last much longer than the standard DOT4 fluid. This is an ABS friendly fluid.
