I need rear pads for a Vantage and BMG have advised they have no supply and none on the horizon. Wanted to keep original OEM pads - any other suppliers or do I need to get the lube and head to a main dealer? There is a suggestion that the supply is being squeezed..

Eurocarparts seem not to show the rears at the moment, but Autodoc are still showing some Brembo ones.

Thanks Lee - I had checked eurocarparts but hadn't heard of that other one.

Do you know if the Brembo ones listed are the same as OEM?

I got Porterfield rear pads from him a few weeks ago and they’re great.

Just gone back to order and they say out of stock (autodoc). Either I didn't notice this first time around or someone has snuck in since and bought them all up!

Any other suggestions?! After OEM rather than the Porterfield ones.

You can buy Porterfield direct in the uk.
Google and you will see UK distributor about £175/an axle.
Not used them but presume same company.

I can recommend porterfields too, use them now instead of oem.
