What Kaxe said, have considered that the would need to stop somehow and they've given you some nice big brakes! Now stop worrying about changing bits on your piece of perfection!!

Mintex pads are always good! The more track orientated ones will squeak though when cold, which can be a bit embarassing as you pull up to the lights!
