rear ones will be fine the fronts do much more braking so are subject to higher temps

I've looked at their buy online and they only see to stock standard discs. Was looking to get grooved / drilled & grooved.

DC Performance seem to be the only ones who have any sort of selection without being £200+

why not just search your local motor factors and buy direct? you buy from a local provider who gives you a face to face sale and the knowledge that if its rubbish they will sort it out.

unless you are buying named expensive stuff eg black diamond drilled and grooved nitro treatment at what evwer they are £££ now anything but a factors seems a waste. Delphi or blueprint both come with guarantee at a factors.


I do have a set of the afrore mentioned BD's if you were interested :D

I've already called the local parts supplier and the only discs they have are blue prints @ £85 a pair. Pretty sure you can get blank brembo discs for almost half that online
