Only re-use the current pads if they are evenly worn and have plenty of meat left on them.

These discs are very popular and work well (great price too): http://www.superhids.co.uk/brakes/br...clone-2-1.html

Also available as a package with fast road pads: http://www.superhids.co.uk/brakes/br...ront-set-.html

I would check your calipers out before fitting new discs as these calipers are prone to seizing , if the pistons don't release the pads off the discs , they can overheat and cause the disc to warp , you need to move the pistons back into the calipers fairly easily , carefully using a screwdriver to push the pistons , if they don't move easily they would need fixing otherwise it could keep on warping discs.

We can offer you our grooved front discs with black painted centres to stop them going rusty , and our kevlar sport pads for £99 inc vat for the front set , this is probably the most popular thing we sell , and at these prices i'm not surprised !

Hope this helps

Cheers Ian
