Front disc and pads required!

[AM78]

Hi All,
Car went for MOT and failed on front discs... I thought that wasn't bad until I saw what price they are !! . My Jag cost me £52 for mintex disc and pads... Tuscan £454!! .

So i've done some digging and have found that I can get ...
front pads (EBC dp3036c) for £80 .
304mm Front disc £120 Each. (Clever trevor)

So £134 saving so far...

Has anyone else manage to get the above cheaper ?? Does anyone know the offset for the disc ?? (304mm x30mm)


Cheers

Andy

thanks for the input toady1! I see other high performance discs of the same size can be purchased for £45 each instead of £120 ++ . The only difference is 3 little letters...T V R

Another vote for the DS 2500 they are great pads.

Also try BG Developments - AP specialist may have some alternative disks you could look at...

Let us know how you go

BG could only find one disc listed (304mm) and the price came out at £224 + VAT

I took one to my local motor factor and two days later he matched it.
Identical size and bolt pattern.
Will look it up if you require , I think it was from a van.

£32 each.

Balls! I had to order mine as car needs to get back in for the re-MOT ASAP...
Still worth saying as it may help someone out in the future

try clever trevor special offer 120inc VAT for front discs....would check the manufacturer first though

these were the ones I went for... Clever Trevor AKA Racing Green If you read the right up on their website they reckon that the discs are made to a better spec! I will report back when they are delivered
