New brakes needed Amy ideas?
« on: 08 February 2015, 22:05 »
Been told my brakes need replacing. Am I best of getting new discs and pads rather then just the pads?

Got 312mm at the moment. Don't want to spend alot. What's a decent brand that won't be sh!t but won't cost the earth :)

Can't afford to spend too much money on the car. Seem some at gsf etc for like £20-30 then pads £30-40. Don't know if they're going to be sh!t though lol

Any help appreciated. Thanks guys and gals  :smiley:

Have a look out for some mintex ones. I got all 4 for about 100quid from eBay and they've been great, saying that it was at least 2 years ago so prices may have changed a bit.

Are the discs worn?

Pagid from Euro Car Parts of are more than adequate for standard replacemen.
