brake disc's ??

Radders · 31-03-2009, 09:54 PM

got the AP's (with the AP calipers) on my car at the moment but after anglesey they are not happy!

so i need/want to try a new set, simpson's told me which ones to get last week but totally forgot the name.

anyone using anything other than the AP disc?

Performance Friction.

performance friction

but what pads are you running? although i know AP can warp occassionally often it is pad deposits and if you run abrasive pads hard such as RS29 they will keep the disc clean!

if you were on track with DS2500 pads or similar i suggest you try this first if your discs have planty of life left in them

you could be right as i am running 2500's but still want to try the performance friction.

Don't use DS2500 - they just melt and will make any disks feel awful.

I have these Performance Friction discs with my HISPEC BBK Floating discs but the rattle like fook under 30 mph

380 by 32mm and they a great i use EBC RED pads and they are as good as the ferrodo pads but half the price and Knockhill is hard on brakes
