    Whatever you do, don't buy cheap pads as they will squeal forever more. Buy a decent known brand at least

    About a month after getting my Vec I had to change the fronts (went for lucas pads) due to squealing but like you the rears are fine

    Yea I bought the Pagid ones last week, no squealing. £25 is not that expensive imo. Unless you drive like a complete loon you should get at least 30k out of a set id think.
