I used Bremsport 12 groove discs on a modded Mondeo a few years back, and after a bad experience with Tarox warping when hot, the Bremsports were very good.

I've a bremsport kit.
They have no 'road' dust seals and so may have a shorter lifespan than brembo / AP road calipers but do cost less.
I also had to get new disks recently - called the importers who said they had no stock and neither did the manufacturers. Called back one month later & they said they were still waiting for confirmation of when a new batch would be made - could be up to 3 Months.
F-ing great!
Eventually found that AP luckily made an interchangable disk at £150 each. had them the nexd day.

If you want more info, look at the manufacturers web site www.outlawdiskbrakes.com (mine were the 4000 series) these are good guys with questions & confirmed to me that they made 'bremsport' for the UK market on the request of TAS.

Hope this helps.

Bremsport are NOT Brembo. And Brembo are not AP, if you see what I mean.

Bremse = brake in german.

I guess hence both Bremsport and Brembo sounding similar.
