    Which brake discs?

    I'm looking to upgrade my standard discs and pads on my new c70, it's a 2.0T currently has 17" alloys and basically it goes like stink, so would prefer better discs. Anyone have any recommendations? And is it better to replace all the discs? At first I was thinking about just putting the drilled and grooved on back and just the plain ones but obviously better ones on the back.

    Any help is much appreciated don't really want to spend a fortune having just bought the car and a new house

    Defo this. If you're sticking with 302's, gen discs are better than anything else you could buy.
