312mm discs + pads for 85?
Are they any good, the price is very low in my opinion....

Brembo are much more expensive at 312mm, so I wondered, thanks


P.S.
Any defferences between RHD and LHD, are these going to be OK for a LHD car ? :)

If your wanting better braking power, get some braided hoses, better brake fluid, better pads and rotors.

Bigger is not always better ;)
