182 brake pads :(

[.J.a.m.e.s.]

ok there getting low now and need changing...

however ive been informed that halfords probably wont stock them and il have to order them...?

Is this correct anyone else had the same problem also, how much do they tend to cost?

thanks

Have you tried Renault? Or Gsf?

Ive found in the past that both of the above Renault parts suppliers have stocked parts for my Renaults.

Just an idea mind.

 

[Fred@BTM]

halfords do stock them, but you'd be mental to fit them, crap!

renault genuine ones aren't too bad (from me anyway, a lot more from renault!)

depends what you want

 

[Naith]

you tried worldsapart.com/BTM/search/google/bing/renault/local garage/initiative?

just another idea mind.

 

[Peperami]

That went well.

 

[chrispy.clio]

I have halfords in the back but would never put thier rubbish in the front.

Ring K-Tec racing for brake pads and discs. They have some on offer at the moment. I ordered a set of Brembo discs and DS2500 pads for my 172 last week.

I rolled with Halfords pads for a good few months. Nothing wrong with them at all for normal road driving. Ergo not doing repeated 80mph+ stops. I wouldn't have trusted them for real spirited use though, and definitely not on track.

try kam racing mate

mines not going on track and im low on money, also i dont bash the hell out of them..

so halfords do sell them then!?

You not got a local car spares place? I run £25 mintex pads as i do mental miles.
Halfords pads are rubbish.

 

[Nick_P]

Get some from autonation, just message them. Easy as that.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Aren't Halfords pads Ferodos?

I wouldnt mind running them if you were JUST doing road use. Depends on how much more better pads were I suppose.

 

[ForceIndia]

Why skimp a few pennies on brakes?? That's all you're going to save. Maybe better off spending money on consumables than spunking it up the wall on t**t strips etc ???

 

[swordjo]

Brakes and tyres are things i wouldn't buy just because they are cheap. Should have maybe got the brakes sorted before the Cup spoiler.

 

[Tom]

Depends on what you do.

Not everyone needs the brakes off an F1 car to drive down the shops.
My £20ish mintex pads work well (same as standard renault pads which are double/triple that) and discs are discs when it comes to normal driving.

The spend should be motivated by need. If you need carbon pads, run them.

 

[K-Tec Racing]

K-Tec Racing - £27.90 inc VAT delivered to your door? EBC Ultimax pads, more than up to the job you are looking to do.

Sean www.k-tecracing.com

 

[iimushroomzii]

Just go to a local motorfactors place, They'll be ten times cheaper than Halfords and probably have the pads in stock too.

 

[Lee-182]

Dont Halfords sell Ferodo pads, thought these were ok.

 

[mark smith87]

Yes halfords do sell ferodo pads. You would have to order DS2500's though. K-Tec Racing are very good for mail order though. and they know what they are talking about!

 

[mark smith87]

I still say use K-Tec racing. They have some brake deals on at the moment.

 

[Wests Renault]

if you want genuine renault pads, i will able to offer discount and delivery to CS members as of monday as we are becoming a trader on here

I do wonder how people cant afford say £50, yet they drive a 182.........

 

[Addz]

Halfrauds I dont know why you'd go there for pads on a 1.1 fiesta never mind a 182.. any motor factors will stock o.e ones such as mintex/ebs ultimax

[MRBILLYUK]

Is your website ever gonna be finished or have you given up on it ? :hail:Always nice to have an alternative to the usual suspects !

 

[Fred@BTM]
