Default Brembo discs....when to replace?

Just got my replacement brake kit in and the discs look rather well used tbh.

Just wondering if anyone has a clue how thin you can let them go before replacing them?

Drop an e-mail to either Ian at High Performance Brakes - Supplying AP and Brembo brake kits for road and motorsport use, or Alyn at Contact AS Performance

Both are very knowledgeable, both will be able to supply if you need.

Personally, mine ar grooved and I replace when the grooves are no more

Thanks Ian.

In that case they should be replaced then. Each disc was about 27.7mm.


Btw Ian, is your group buy on brakes still going?
