Last Wednesday, I had the good fortune to pop into Paul Chance’s unit in Redditch to pick up a pair of new front brake discs and Ferodo pads. I went the 322mm discs as I wanted to keep the OEM look.

Not only did I get them for a great price, but Paul put them on for me while I waited! The spacers were machined while I waited, too!

I would like the larger ‘S and Sagaris’ rear discs at some point, so I am hoping Paul will get the spacers machined – he said he was worried people wouldn’t pay the £60 (approx.) for the larger spacers, but I certainly would! It would give the profile a more ‘balanced’ look, as well as even greater stopping power, I think.

So, cheers, Paul, highly recommended for both price and great service.

Chris, what is the diameter of the original discs. Trying to see if 330mm discs are a good upgrade.
