hi guys, im new to the LEON CR after a history of 1.8T Golfs .. I picked up the car a week ago. the pads were changed, however the brake discs are on their way out.. and i was wondering wheres the best place to get new ones from..and best price wise. Theres a guy on here that has given me a really good price on them. but what i wanted to know was, do i have to replace the discs woth BREMBO ones ??

This is why I said to talk to Bill - he'll be able to give you a good number of options based on your budget.

I know he sells a lot of EBC Discs, which people are getting good results with combined with Ferodo DS2500 pads.

He also options drilled/grooved options including Brembo I believe

aha cheers mate wkd!!! i was under the impression that you could only replace the discs with brembo ones ..... because of the size of them.

This used to be the case but now people have jumper on the band wagon.

Bill does a very tasty 2 piece set up which is the best you'll get in your size
