New brakes, advice?
« on: 03 December 2007, 23:37 »
I think im gonna need a new set of front brakes soon, has anyone else bought these one of ebay?

They seem fairly cheap, so if anyone has got them would you recomend them, or recomend anything else for that matter?

cheers

A mate of mine got some "cheap" front discs for his golf, About 2 months later he changed them saying thay were s***!! IMO go for a well known make or use genuine parts. Price them from vw you might be surprised.

you should be able to get brembo discs for an extra couple of £ from GSF

remember you should really do the pads when you do the disc's as you're current pads are going to be bed into the shape of your old ones.
