Best rear brake disc?

[crackedfinger]

Time for me to get new rear disc's (500 vented).

What does everyone recommend + where to get them from + how much?

Thanks.

Depends on what you want from them, are you looking to stay with the std setup, which i have found to be perfectly adequate for "normal use" ;-) and the odd trackday, with uprated discs and pads.
If that is the case, then i can recommend the Black Diamond grooved discs very heighly but, dont go for the BD pads they are not so good when trackdaying the car. I have recently switched to Ferrodo DS2500 pads which are a good track/road compromise.
If you check out Ballistic Banana's website here;

You're find all the info you need.

I used Black Diamond discs and Mintex 1144 pads on my previous toy and they were great even on track days. Currently using 1144's on standard discs on the Griff and they work very well. When the discs need changing I'll go for BD's.

I’ve just had all four replaced with a new standard setup by RT Racing at a very reasonable price, depends where you are.

Cheers,

I've been happy enough with standard discs and EBC Red stuff ceramic pads. Mainly fast road use...
