So todays stupid/obvious question. I some M675 SLX brakes from CRC, bought about a month or two ago. [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/shimano-slx-m675-disc-brake/rp-prod83173 ]These[/url]

I was wondering what of the superstar brake pads I needed? I assume S5? I don't have the bike with me ATM so can't check the pads but need to get them ordered pronto. (Hence the stupid question)

For reference, their list of pads they do:

S5, I just got some for my XTs. They're fine.

Pretty sure it's the S5 ( I hope so as I have just ordered them )

Also if you get the organic ones it states without fins.

Awesome thanks for the confirmation.

Saves me shelling out a load of money last minute at a bike shop for the proper ones.

I ordered up some organic H4's for my Hope Mono M4 calipers...stopping power is great, but they seem to rattle in the calipers...look to be about half a mm shorter than the other pads (kevlar Superstars) and they rattle like billy-o on the bike when it is moving.

Stop very well so no issues with that, but they do appear to be smaller than others.

Not a grumble (can't complain at £18 delivered for 4 sets that work very well), just an observation in case others experience the same thing.
