294mm discs - which ones?
Are TSL Motorsport's Gp.N 294mm perlitic iron discs (for the 4-pots) worth parting over £200 for? Are they that much better than any other disc out there of the same diameter e.g. do they offer a greater coefficient of friction; dissipate heat better; not warp; deglaze pads better, etc...?
Any experienced advice will be greatly received...

For £200 I can supply you grooved front 294mm discs with a 12 month gaurantee against warping and a set of Mintex M1144/1155 or Ferodo DS2500 pads , £10 extra for P&P

Thanks.
Are they exactly like those pictured i.e. 6 curved grooves either side that stop short of the discs' outer edges? Or will they differ in any way? - please advise...
[Would I need to fit the discs so that the grooves' outer edges face forwards (to gain airflow into them, with the rotation of the wheels?!]

Hi Ian.
Received the discs and they look fab - can't wait to get them (and the 4-pots) fitted at Zen on the 30th...
One thing... I'm intrigued to know why it makes a difference for the grooves (on these discs at least) to face 'backwards' with repsect to the forward motion of the vehicle? Can you explain the reason?...
Thanks again for a quick, efficient service.
John.

The only difference the grooves make facing different ways , is expelling the dust , the way I have marked them , the grooves flow out to the outer edge , any dust will folllow the groove , if you had them the other way , the dust is dragged in towards the centre of the discs
