Don't buy cheap rubbish.

The pads on my Clio when I bought it hardly had the power to get the abs to work, replaced with genuine Renault and been great ever since.

Standard are fine. Drop Georege (g172) off here a pm and im sure he will look after you

Well I seen these ebc with a kinda sand paper surface to scrub the rubbish off the disc wasn't sure if thry were worth it but ? probably just get Renault ones

Don't get EBC. If they're anything like their bike pads they're scary bad. Jon

 

[rossmc55]

Are they that bad ? Tbh there push bike pads were pretty poor but people had Said good things about there car pads need new discs aswell worth doing ones on it are a bit of a fmesss

There bluestuff pads are fantastic, I'd rate them over ds2500s tbh

When people say standards are rubbish they all seem to be comparing knackered brakes to new brakes. Standards are fine, even the cheapies from a motor factors. If its a nice bite and sharp, consistent feel you want then just buy ferrodo, pagid or Brembo O/E's

Clearly they wont do trackdays but then no pad under £100 will be happy with trackday temperatures.... and on a 1.2 I doubt that is a consideration?

 

[rossmc55]

i just wanted advice on what pad is best for the car not any hi performance brake pads, like you said its a 1.2 it struggles to get to sixty. Just pads that lasted and worked well. I'm ordering Brembo pads and discs from G172 as soon as moneys in the bank. He offered a very good deal on them that i had to take!

I had brembo OEMs on my 172 for a short while, they were plenty good enough, you have made the right decision.

Quality name and thanks to G172 like a said earlier a brill price have to have em
