Alas the discs to my 2006 Gallardo are knackered, can anyone recommend a UK supplier as I need a full set (pads are easy to get) and dealer prices are mega bucks.

Cheers

Side note: How can you tell when your discs are close to needing replacement? How long should they last?

Yeah tricky one that.
All depends on how the car is driven i suppose.I`m more on off the throttle
compared to heavy braking.
Deep grooves,and a warped disc,and cracks due to heat are not ideal.
They seem to have plenty of meat on them ,mine came up great with a skim,a wire brush
and a little paint.
USER "Sir marks" had a pair of fronts for sale, as new.
Try your local Audi dealer for lambo discs.
Bit of info here.

if you get a chance send simonspider a message him and his business partner have 3 Gallardo's and 2 Murcie's between them and they found great disks for about half the price of standard Lambo ones. smile
