Default Brake Pads, AB sent the wrong pads, options

Morning All, I ordered a set of rear pads for my 1999 DI. I ordered the oem Lockheed pads. Opened th box this morning to put them on and found that I had been sent the Ferodo Premier pads in error. AB is closed for the weekend. Any opinions on the quality/durability of the Ferodo pads vs. the Lockheed pads? Truck up on jacks, wheels off ready for new pads, surfs up and the board is waiting..........Leave the old ones til the OEM pads show or put on the Ferodo and not look back? Thanks Phil

Go and install the ones they sent you, you got a better deal for a cheaper price.
Make sure to use lots of sound deadening spray and do a 3 pint DOT 4 brake flush when done.
