Hey guys,
after recent inspection of my disks, i found i had 3mm of pad left (yucky), and that the disks were .5mm away from being classed as 'undersize'.
NOW, the question is, Do i stick with the ford rotors, and pads, or do i go aftermarket (DBA LONGLIFE SLOTTED?) And different Pad Combination.
If i do go aftermarket, i've found that not many peoples know which disk is used in the premium brake upgrade. But after ringing around a few places (and mesuring the disks myself), i found that the disks were DBA506. And the Pads were DB1375's ... Now can someone tell me if thats correct or not?
So far i've been quoted the cheapest being $260 Per Disk.. considering everyone else averaged around the 290 mark, and Ford Spares said $330.. would it be worth to grab them?
What about pads.. Bendix Ultimates? (ewww brake dust)
Green Stuff?
How does all of that wear with the disk?
Can i have anyones personal experiance, or opinions on what i should do? (i have to do this this weekend going by 3mm of pads left)
Danny boy!
