So what are people running then? Mine are close to replacement so interested in alternatives.

I think Brembos are the default oem choice? I've had Pagids 42's on previous cars which I'm definitely considering. I see fitting red stuff offers a substantial cost saving but I've never really been a fan of EBC. Anybody tried them and/or alternatives that can report back?

Most interested in wear rates/feel etc. Dust and squeal is of secondary consideration.

The pagid site states the RS42's are for the N24. I'm not up on the specs. Do they have the same size callipers as the standard v8?

Thanks in advance

Thanks Bogie, actually think you may be right, might have got side tracked reading different sites about the brembos - I probably already have the Pagids on now, and tbh, as you say they perform very well.

However I'm still interested to see if anybody has fitted the red stuff. If they perform well enough they potentially offer a £200+ saving over the full set.
