Title: Brake Discs
Post by: Zxrob on November 23, 2019, 21:40
So MOT today and advisory on the discs, thought there would be, anyway, recommendations please for good quality dics that will kind of last without breaking the bank, pads as well because the rears are a bit low

Cheers Rob

Pagid.

No nonsense simple plain stock disc.
Coating holds up very well.

Lewis Winpenny on the Facebook group does good deals on Mtec discs & ebc pads.  He offers various options.

First time I changed mine I went for blueprint discs and ebc pads (with hel braided lines) and I was very pleased.

Just changed them again this year for blueprint discs and ebc yellowstuff pads and I am very very pleased.

Definitely Pagid discs and pads.
Good braking, longevity and never show signs of rust.
Eurocarparts stock them.

Pagid discs (and pads) on my daily, but that does get used in all weathers, unlike my 2. Fitted summer 2018 ca 12k miles and discs not rusty.

Exactly the setup I use - zero problems on track for many years now.
