Ive just bought sum 266mm 206 calipers but unsure of what pads and discs to use.
its been suggested that there is no need to buy expensive 1's as the standard 206 ones will be a vast improvement on my quicky 1's.

what are you all currently running?

Yeah standard here

Standard ferodo are cheap on ebay

I'm just about to try some brembo max "grooved" discs though - but last 2 years I've been running just local motor factor stuff :)

a good set of ferodo or mintex pads,
dont need drilled or grooved disks, normal 1s are just as good but obviously dont have the looks.

drilled and grooved disks have more tendency to fracture.
All Formula 1 cars have gone back to flat disks and there are reasons for it
