Ferodo DS2500 brake pads for AP Racing CP9660 calipers are a strong fast-road, track-day and light race compound designed for drivers who want an upgrade over standard road pads without moving to a full race-only material. Designed for the CP9660 / CP3905 pad profile, these pads use an 18mm thickness and 54mm pad depth, making them suitable for AP Racing Pro5000R CP9660 six-piston calipers.
DS2500 is built to offer a balance of braking performance, refinement and usability. Ferodo lists the compound with an average friction coefficient of 0.41 across a working temperature range of 0°C–500°C, making it well suited to performance road use, track days and lighter race applications.
Compared with more aggressive compounds such as DS3000, DS2500 offers a more road-friendly feel with strong modulation and predictable braking behaviour. It is a good option for drivers who want improved bite and temperature capability while keeping the braking system manageable for mixed road and track use.
