Default Another brakes question

Hi,

Done some digging but couldn't come up with anything much. Basically the grooves have disappeared on the back of my discs, and are still there on the front, albeit wearing out slowly. Is this normal as there still seems to be a lot of meat left on the discs? Do i need to rush out and buy another set right now (300 quid + pads).

Cheers
Nicky

if the discs are within thickness tolerance, then you're ok
otherwise new ones required

2 pot brakes? or 4 pot?

Hi,

Theyre 4-pot brembos with 325mm discs. What mm is the tolerance?

Cheers
Nicky
