i find halfrauds quite hard to beat tbh...wot was it jon..345 for a pair o discs n pads or summat....zollo said the pads werent too bad either

[J o n]

erm, think it were £20 a disk and £4 for the pads!

tbh, no, can't be beaten on price

[Zollo]

Yep, those £4 pads did me proud at Cadwell, particularly considering what a state the rest of the brakes were in!

Aren't the rears quite a bit more expensive because they're the bearing carrier too? So you'll more than likely need new bearings as they'll be too seized to put back in? or something like that!

[J o n]

yeah, they come pre pressed on the rears I think... not cheap... might go Halfrauds for them and use 2 live's 60% discount

[Zollo]

The ones I bought from Euro Car Parts didn't come with bearings pre-pressed. I had to get them seperately. £50 for the discs, and £55 for the bearing kit. Was I stiffed by the ECP boys?!?

[J o n]

erm, think you got the long dry one there mate... i've only ever bought them pre pressed and for about £45-50...

[Zollo]

Thought as much at the time. But without the knowledge that they should definately come with bearings, I couldn't really agrue! Oh well

[J o n]

well i didn't know either, I only found out when I asked why the rear disks cost twice as much as the fronts... lol

live and learn I guess, at least you know now mate
