confused... very!!!

hiya!
for the starters, here's my newbie post, http://www.lancer-evo.net/community/...pic.php?t=7480
and now the question. can anyone please explain me why these two front pads are so different? :?:
gravel:
http://www.elcome.ltd.uk/DSPerf/buyers.asp?p=FDS765
tarmac:
http://www.elcome.ltd.uk/DSPerf/buyers.asp?p=FDS1334
on both of them it says EVO VII front, right, so why are they so different? or maybe they mixed something up at ferodo and put discription of a rear pad instead?
thanks guys

Hi mate,

You will find that the evo 8 RS has smaller brakes on the gravel spec when it come's into the country, and the tarmac spec has the Brembo brakes as standard

Hope this helps

Matt
