So it seems...? I've noticed the ATE PremiumOne being named a few times over here. They are highly recommended for what I've read.

I am contemplating to buy Mintex drilled + grooved discs + Mintex pad for the front, I'm able to buy them for a nice price (€170 2x dics + 4x pads). Or should I go with Zimmerman? I want to try drilled/grooved discs for a change.

I have helped a friend put some of thier groved and drilled discs and mintex pads on a Ibiza Cupra. been on there for about 5 months now no problems yet.

I have MTEC drilled and grooved on the front (150 FR+) with Mintex pads, definitely less brake fade than the OEM pagids they replaced and they were way cheaper as well.

i had them on my focus and will put them on my leon to very good and good value

I have them on my ibiza, drilled and grooved ones, good value for money and no probs so far. thumbs up from me.

i also had them, would NOT recommend either

mine warped after a few months (road use) and they were anything but helpful getting them inspected under warranty, 2 months since i sent them back, still nothing..... they are also quite rude on the phone.

Pagid at EPC,great quality,fantastic price...I got 312mm discs & pads for the front of my Cupra for under £90 too.

For plain Pagid discs or are they modded (drilled/grooved/dimpled)?

Plain discs,fantastic quality,no nonsense OE quality discs,i have heard so many bad reports on drilled i didn't go for them.
For standard road use drilled one's are IMO just bought for looks,i'd rather have good solid reliable,value for money brakes

Drilled discs not recommended as they eventually crack between drilled holes
Grooved discs are better if you are a bit hard on the left foot !!!!
