I need some help in getting pads for the Spoon calipers for the EK, currently I am in the UK and was looking for some decent pads.

Mintex or Ferodo? Which model - are they from Halfords?
EBC yellow - which model?

Any advice is appreciated..

Mintex 114/Ferodo DS2500/Hawk HP+. With the extra bite from the Spoons they should all work well, you will need to get them from somewhere other than Halfords, what is your location and time duration here? Others may help to narrow down your hunt.

no experience with the Mintex stuff, but I would definitely choose the DS2500 over the HP+.... performance wise they are similar but just the dusting in general is lower and easier to clean with the Ferros.
 
TGM are about an hour from Sutton, call them & pick a set up, normally has Hawk & Ferodo in stock. 01252 811 972.

Do you know how much is the DS2500 in HK?

I run the Hawk HP+ and they are easy enough to clean up after!!

Would stay clear of EBC tbh, don't think much of their pads, discs are good though

Worth noting that any pads you get you will have to grind off any dimples on the back of them, had to do this with the Hawks as well as grinding off the wear indicators :)
