Anybody know of any sets of brake discs, 302mm fronts and 292mm rears - that are grooved and dimpled/drilled cheaper than £170? I've been browsing the bay and that's the cheapest i could find :( can get mintex pads for an extra £20, just wondering if there's any discounted sellers, group buys going down or whether anybody has spotted a cheaper set?
Just realsied it's in the wrong section, doh. Sorry about that :)
Cheers, Ben

Awesome, thank you very much :D Seems abit better getting those then, £145 to the £160 to the £190 and i was only going to go for the discs and pads pack cause it worked out to be an extra £20 - so seemed like nothing. but as my motor doesn't need pads, yet might as well save £45 i reckon. lol

Just messaged the mtec seller about buying those two in the links above together and they've got back to me with a combined price, including postage for 134.99 :) Pays to be a little cheeky every now and again, just thought i'ld let you guys know just incase you were thinking of buying some in the near future, save another tenner :)

Every set of grooves discs or fancy pads I've had ive ended up binning, had them on my vec b gsi and Sri. Oem discs an pads for me now except for the police spec pads on the front for me. I found them noisy and lacked response when cold and average driving. Tho when I did drive a little enthusiastic I warped the discs. Iirc they were ebc?
