Question

I recently had the discs and pads replaced on my MY00 with
EBC greenstuff and EBC grooved discs. Performance is good,
but the discs now appear to be rusty on the 'hub' part - which
looks unsightly next to my superlegarra's. They were fitted
by a Subaru dealer. Have they fitted an inferior grade of disc?
Or is this normal? Advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul.

Thumbs down

I had the same problem in August when I replaced the rear discs.

They looked awful, and I've only got the 15" alloys on at the moment. The local Subaru dealer also fitted mine.

I later painted the hub part with the brake paint which you can buy from Halfords. I have the brake calipers in red and the hub part of the disc in gold which looks quite classy.

Try That!

Cheers

Thanks for the reply. I was surprised that these went rusty since the standard Subaru ones were OK in this respect.
