It depends on which pads they are referring to.The Ferodo Formula pad is a very good brake pad and has TS2000 stamped on it OR there is another pad called Ferodo DS Performance.Both work well but the DS pad is better. .

Would Bendix Ultimates go alright with these rotors? Ive just got some new 4000 slotteds but haven't decided on pads yet... for a baII xr8 ute

The ferodo pads are very good and there really isn't anything else cheaper on the market for performance use although TRW/Lucas pads will give good braking for about $70 and are just as dusty as the others.
Ferodo Formula pads here are being dropped and normally sold for about $165
DS Performance pads here sell for $231 a set
