I was in the process of changing my front brake pads and got the DB1223 Bendix pads. After removing the caliper, I realised the brake pads were much smaller compared to the DB1223. The brake pads are 12cm long compared to the recommended FTO GR brake pads which are 15cm long. I am confused now... I checked Bendix site again and they have the 12cm brake pad for FTO 1.8 (DB1249).
Also if I go with feredo, what part number do I buy? I am guessing the Feredo DS2500 is 15 cm long as well.
Can anyone confirm that the front pads for GR 2.0 is 12cm long?
