Brakes question....
 
My 4 pots finally turned up :)

I noticed the groved/drilled discs have some tiny cracks around the vent holes.....

Should these be changed?

Finally, can't remember if the fixing bolts are the same :wonder:

Cheers

I didnt even need to say anything...

Thats like saying, my brakes are metal on metal, have been for years and ive never had a problem.

Drilled discs need to have cast holes in them for them to have any chance of not cracking. Dimples are slightly better but personally id always go with grooved or plain.

I'll be replacing them with grooved....
