Brake discs and pads

Post by gje999 » Sat Mar 16, 2019 10:22 am

Hi, can anyone recommend a source for front and rear discs and pads? Choices seem to have got more limited and prices all over the place. Many thanks.

Have a search on the forum . Theres plenty of threads with good info on this subject. Zimmerman disks are the standard go to disk . Pads are another subject all together.
Welcome and FON

Paid $1000 for Zimmerman F/R. EBC Yellow pads do the trick for another $300

How do you find the Pagids?
Daytona RS6 C5 Avant. Viper'd, Billies, Waggers, MTM box brain, C6 stoppers, xcarlink, R8 coolant cap (woohoo)
///M3 E46 | XC90 (V8, natch) | Passat GTE | RR Classic V8 flapper

I'm looking at the 405mm conversion they do , might have to swap these pads out though , the noise from them at low speed is unreal ,even when hot
