Brake pad / disc advice

mr sagman · 24-12-2013, 11:19 PM

Although my brakes seem fine when driving, Once I removed the wheels I was quite shocked at the rusty condition of the discs and surrounding areas, particularly the hub.. No doubt due to the car getting very little use for the past 3 years, I have the car booked in to Darren Woods in Stockport (top top guys) early Jan for a full checkover and these will obviously flag up as needing replacing, So I want to do my homework now and establish whether to bite the bullet and upgrade (if necessary) or replace with OEM and possibly go with Pagid RS14 as I don't intend doing track days (yet), I couldn't live with the brakes squeeling, some, or all of the time hence me ruling out the Pagid RS29, Basically Im a brake novice and need some helpful guidance, Car will be used as a daily several days a week and Evo triangle/ European hoons (2 booked for next year already), I would appreciate some advice and also good places to purchase discs/ pads.

Many thanks in advance guys and gals.
