Clicky for Lazy Tom[ url=http:/google.com]Rename here[ /url] Remove spaces  As for whats best wouldnt have a clue bud, try a search for Mintex, got mintex pads on mine but there squeaky as Fcuk, brake dust build up on mine seems to be a nightmare, ive had them off before for a proper clean, but only fixed it for a short while, jetwash seems to work though  ________________________________________  Ex-Black 6  - Speed has never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary...

I'd go with ferodo ds2500 pads all round and just replace discs with gst ones.Its not the cheapest setup but you wont get any better without different calipers. ________________________________________ Team High Boost Supercharged Gti-6™ |

Glad this question came up, had my eye on these the other day....ClickyDust and squeal free apparantly. I need to replace all of my discs and pads (due to near MOT fail). Well, after I've rebuilt the engine that is! ________________________________________ 1998 (S) Phase 2 Diablo Red GTI-6 |
