Yes they do, you'll find that most are listed that way too, Alfa and loads of others use the same pad too

Rich E posted a comprehensive guide to the differences between the 406 and RS pads in a thread a while ago, will see if I can find it.

Awful pads, they end up leaving pad material on the disc giving impression of warped discs when pushing on, So save ur cash! ;-)

I priced up pads for my mates impeza (gold brembos) in ferodo. They were about £80, then found some exactly the same pad in ferodo just a different part number, listed for a Viper at about £30. I think they're the same as the 406. I'll check when i'm back in work on monday to see if they're the same for you.

Also agree with above, everything EBC I've used has been rubbish. Ds2500's are the ones u want. well worth the money (even tho my set were free from Ratty.lol)

I put them in my road car to clean them up and then into the track car and they have never made a sound. I'll defo be spending £120 on a replacement set when these get worn out.

As for the pads. The 406/Focus ones are 110x70x17.7mm (FDB1379) about £40. The viper ones are 109x69x16.8mm (FDB721) about £20. I've seen these go in an RS focus with no problems too. Cant find the details on the subaru pads altought i think they are different.
