Nothing wrong with them, but they don't come with bearings pressed in, or ABS rings, seriously, just buy them from Renault. Someone should hopefully back me up in the minute.

£100 from renault, bearings pressed in and already include ABS rings.

I bought OEM rear discs with abs rings and bearings, with motrio rear pads for £112 delivered from wests renault on here, quick delivery too :)
 
There is no need to spend the extra money just get OEM if you actually need them.

I got some off Fred with OEM pads they made all hell of a difference to my pitted ones.

I got brembo rear disks with bearings and brembo pads, all for £99 delivered.
Plus it arrived in less than 48 hours.

Given that the rear wheels on the Clio are only there to stop the back of the car grinding across the road, and that the brakes do verry litte, there's no point trying to get clever with them.

Front brakes, different matter of course, but the rears are fine with OEM / Unipart stuff

Do Brembo offer the disc with the ABS ring attached as i am struggling to find one?

The ABS rings on my PH1 dont fit on to the Brembo rears I bought in. I think theres another part number but I have not investigated further.

pfft your right about the rear brakes doing nothing apart from at the moment my rear wheels are the 1's that are locking up on my cup

Just buy renault ones, trust me, last longer imo, no s**t pressing bearings abs rings etc, Rollo is correct.

what if i buy abs rings. think they only cost bout £5 each

my standard abs rings did not fit. There are either different types or the brembos are simply not designed for them.
Maybe someone like Fred will be able to shed light on it.
