Discs and pads
 
Well the time has come for me to replace the front discs and pads on my STI. The question is, OEM or upgraded. I dont do any track days with the car just the normal bit of fast road driving here and there.
What would you guys go for?

It works out cheaper to replace the OE, and you get an upgrade aswell. :doubleup:

Price wise its best to ask Alyn he will probably have something on offer.

He can sort any of your needs depending what your budget is.

Just this minut got of the phone with Alyn, what a nice guy. Really knows his stuff. He is doing me a good deal for a pair of OEM discs and uprated pads, as seeing as my car will never see a race track advised me that the OEM discs with a good brake pad with be just fine for my driving style.
