I will soon need new brakes for my C5 Z06 as the discs are probably the originals and are starting to get hairline fractures (MOT advisory).

Ive looked on rock auto and it seems £500 will get some mid range discs and pads delivered to my door. Or £360 from EBC for some solid discs with Redstuff pads. (or possibly yellowstuff? but they seem to be more track focused)

Where does everyone get their discs and pads from? Anyone had EBC on their vette or similar weight/ power car?

Thanks

Edit: on a tangent, i discovered the "competitive driving" mode this week and what a difference it makes! Previously any small bump in the road and the car would cut power. No longer a problem! Awesome!

Thank you.

I can only find rear brake pads for the car from Mintex, unfortunately, same with other brands.

Good to hear.

There is lots of negative news on EBC.
