For example...
2 X BREMBO DRILLED GROOVED FRONT VENTED BRAKE DISCS 288MM DIAMETER 5 STUD FITTING

1 X SET (4) NEW FRONT BREMBO BRAKE PADS

2 X NEW REAR BREMBO DRILLED GROOVED BRAKE DISCS SOLID 232MM DIAMETER 

189.00 too good to be true?

(yes its off ebay, not buying from there as ive heard its not the best of ideas but easiest place to find examples)

They are not brembo discs, they are unbranded and come with brembo pads (Post a link to confirm, but brembo only do drilled and grooved discs in brembo sport and they are £250+ a pair)

Std brembo disc and pads f&r are £130 or with Max discs are £230 (prices are for cars with or without wear indicators, subject to chassis no)

Heres the link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261267655381?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

I checked on your website, do the pads come in pairs(Front brake pads 288mm & 312mm (With Wear Indicators) - Brembo P 85 045)? I can't see if it says as the discs are noted as "(Pairs)".

Sorry for all the questions, but i am hopeless  :grin: Dont want to go and order the wrong thing.

Well them discs do confuse me, Brembo do not do drilled and grooved discs in any of their ranges (I do wonder if they are old stock or badly listed?)

and all my discs and pads are priced per axle set (2 discs, 4 pads etc) (Google hates me listing them like it but I would never sell just 1 disc, I let ecp get the low google shopping prices using the price for 1 disc despite they wont sell them that way! (ok maybe they would?))

That's ebay for you haha.
Couple more questions and i will (hopefully) have them ordered...

The ones ive added to my basket, "Front brake pads 288mm & 312mm (With Wear Indicators) - Brembo P 85 045"
Is that just that they will work for both?

Front brake discs 288mm (pair) - Brembo Max 09.7010.76

Front brake pads 288mm & 312mm (With Wear Indicators) - Brembo P 85 045

Rear brake discs 232mm (pair) - Brembo Max 08.7165.75

Rear brake pads all models - Brembo P 85 020

Is that all compatible and should go fine?

I use a system called tec-doc which lists all products by all suppliers and is a great system to have and it's unlikely to be wrong (as it's no1 in Europe for the automotive after market and hugely respected)

That's ebay for you haha.

Them parts numbers match what I have listed for 288 fronts with wear indicators.  :smiley:

Ive been comparing your prices with other websites.
I was pleasantly surprised. You are cheaper on most items, especially Brembo Max 08.7165.75.
Nice job.
