from Renault mate
As brun says renault.
its really easy to fit new bearings...done it myself using the old bearing and a hammer n a piece of wood.
also found that there is 2 different sizes of abs ring used on the discs so if u have abs make sure you get the correct discs.

Last time i tried to put bearings in rear discs it was a sash cramp job with endless tonnage of pressure i presume and you used a ****ing hammer and a block of wood??

tommo wats your current disc's and pads set up?
not to be funny but the rears do at most on a good day 25% of the braking only 15 % TO PASS THE MOT. so anything over standard working well is over kill just stick with standard working well. drilled disc only on track cars grooved discs on road cars as it keeps the pad from glazing but increases wear rates by 25% on average..
standard brakes at 100% efficiency are ok for any road car up to 200bhp in my opinion.
still its only an opinion ...... 8)

once you have put them on and bedded them in , could you do a review on how they compare with your current set up

agreed on the rears, at most uprated pads
Also disagree about the drilled discs, there are different rates of thermal expansion around the holes leading tn cracking in extreme heat situations, this is a well known fact

With cheap drilled disks I would agree, I don't think there will be a problem with with quality brakes like Brembo tho, they are standard equipment for Porsche, Pagani and other supercars so they must be up to the job. I plan on doing a few track days next year so I'll keep you posted on how they perform.
i have some brembo sport japans for sale if anyone wants them.
