When I first bought the car, mine looked like this. Get them changed bro!

 

[Se7en172]

They are shagged are they?

 

[CUPCRAZY]

Replaced mine just over a year ago and they now look the same as yours.


I think its caused by the pads not touching the top half of the disc causing them to corrode.

Her way of looking at it (coming from a female who has no interest in cars whatsoever) why spend money on the car when I can get a new outfit, or new shoes, or a handbag! Gets on my bell

 

[fuel_slut]

Seen worse than that.

 

[Merk]

Mine were like that when I bought my car as well, those rear or front?

 

[Se7en172]

Rears, My fronts a practically brand new Brembo High carbons!

They do fook all anyway. My GTi ones looked like that, changed them though just for looks!

 

[Se7en172]

Just got off the phone to GDI, they said it was normal. If I changed them and the car saw alot of wet, then they are likley to end up like this again within 6 months anyway!

cups dont use the rear brakes anyway, dont worry about it.

mine are like this too!

 

[Henry]

they look fine to me. as you know, the pads don't sweep all of the disc and you end up with a corroded lip as the rust builds outwards and the swept area is slowly worn inwards. so long as the swept area is still well above minimum thickness (not sure what that thickness is), they're fine. look ok to me anyway.

 

[AndyWilde]

my brakes look exactly like yours!!

 

[Se7en172]

Ok happy days! it's a common thing.

Leave them
