Going to bite the bullet and replace the front disc to see if it fixes the juddering. Becausae the world and his dog seem to have similar issues with the AP discs I thought I'd try a different brand. Reyland list a AP compatible 362x32 rotor (which I understand to be the size) but have different pad depth options listed. Anyone know whether they are D55 or D61? I'm sure I could find the PCD somewhere, but likewise - any knowledge?!

Anyone used these discs before?

From my limited understanding, the juddering is caused by pad transfer, so it's not the disc's fault as such - again from what I've understood the solution is to either do the sharp braking from speed a few times now and again, drive the car like you stole it all the time or change the pads to Pagid RS29s. I may be wrong, so am interested to what other's opinions are on this thread.

yeah - have seen threads on this before, it is generally pad transfer i understand (think they are ds2500 iiirc) but no amout of hard stops clears them properly. Mine are baaaad (Stick would confirm!) so just going to bite the bullet. Will do fronts first as rears are integrated bells

I had so much trouble with my AP's. Andy at MF informed me that it was the way they were made which meant they weren't up to scratch.

I had them skimmed about 4 times, in the end i went with Dba's all round, a lot better.

Reyland discs are a better option for a road car
Martin the owner is very good give him a call he will likely know which option you need

Discs are pretty much generic but he will do custom bells & brackets

I did email Martin a year or two ago about the discs, but never got a reply back. Didnt bother pursuing again though.

For road use, they probably would be a very good option.

Also emailed him yesterday - no reply yet...

Will call next week if I dont hear. Looks like i'm going to have to measure the disc face for the pad depth then!

They use Pagid discs machined to suit I believe
