Hi, Looking for some advice, time to change rear discs and pads on my car. Choices are brembo discs and pads from online. Or Pagid from euro car parts. Price difference is £14 more for the brembos. Any advice greatly appreciated. Cheers Harry
Brembos everytime.
Agree with Steve, go for the Brembos
Brembos at £399 delivered....all day, everyday!
I had mani dealer rears in mine just before I bought it and they seem good, no idea what they cost though? Just curious anyone?
No idea what they would cost from a dealer, but I paid £160 for brembo rear discs and pads, and bosch shoes from ebay last year.
I paid £110 for genuine rear discs and £201 for front on the S60R recently, no idea on pad costs.
This is what I fitted last year,volvo shoe kit & springs were £45 is. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=251727107751&alt=web
That's why it's cheaper to get the brembo set off ebay. Works out £100 a corner including drilled discs and pads all made by the masters themselves! The genuine discs and pads are still made by Brembo just not drilled and boxed Volvo with Volvo mark up.
And they do look nice.
I'll be fitting cross drilled Brembos all round to my car this spring because my rear shoes are binding occasionally and they've got a bit of a lip now after 35k +.
