ATE Brake Discs

[BenS_172]

I have the opportunity to buy some ATE Grooved and Drilled brake discs for my 19 16V..

Just wondering if anyone has them on the their motors? And if so are they any better than the OE parts?

Cheers

Ben

Ate make standard equipment for BMW - they are german made and good quality - i have ate pads all round on 16V - no squeaks, no probs as yet over the last 10k - gettin some new discs - ATE power discs - grooved - from http://www.eurocarparts.co.ukwww.eurocarparts.co.uk - £35 each i think for my clio....

Doesnt brake like TarOx, but its a lot cheaper, and the diference on braking its NOT worth the extra money.

On other hand, ATE discs are by far best constructed than TarOx. At least at the naked eye.

Because of the partial grooves they dont "slice" the pad as much the TarOx.

i ordered some new standard rears from Euro car parts and they were ATE (not power discs but ATE nonetheless)
