yeah your running the stock pads. I believe the calipers are the same on the series 1 and 2. I could be wrong.

The best pads to get for less brake dust are probably Hawk ceramic pads.


And welcome to the addiction..

Welcome!

Actually any ceramic pad will dust less, than the semi metallic pads that come stock.
