These any good?

[MDP91]

I'm in need of new brakes all round, mainly the rears but the fronts need doing also.

I have been looking at the best place to get genuine Renault ones as I'm not planning on tracking the Clio and I think the OEM ones will be just fine. Just had a look on ebay and stumbled apon these:

My knowledge of brake brands etc isn't so good and wanted to know if they are worth buying?? If not could anyone point me a good direction?

Cheers,
Mark

You'll need to fit bearings to the rear discs....

Also, brembo HC fronts with DS25000000000 pads. Sorted.

Get genuine rear pads and discs (they come with bearings / abs rings already fitted)

Brembo HC and DS2500 up front if you fancy some better stopping power, although standard stuff is pretty good if you're not tracking it.

Let me know if you need a hand mate, not too far from you and just changed mine'

Thanks guys, didn't notice the bit about the bearings and abs rings, oops!

Think I'm just going to go with standards to be honest, I don't need anything to fancy.

Just spotted these also?

Where is the best/cheapest place for me to get genuine renault brakes?

 

[MartinR]

only use genuine rear discs!!! PM T21ads he is the cheapest on here.

Get brembo hc and brembo pads front and rear off G172

 

[sbridgey]

Pm g172 for brembo hc discs and brembo OEM pads, they are the perfect road setup

 

[MDP91]

They cost alot though right?

 

[MartinR]

I would say for the font discs and pads plus rear pads off G172 would be circa £100 and rear discs around the same!
Remember buy cheap buy twice

Gahh, I know but I don't want to spend s**t loads as I'd need to get them fitted to

 

[MartinR]

I would say fit them yourself but don't if you are unsure n what to do. maybe ask a local member to help fit them? if not you would be looking around 1-2hrs labour dependant on the garage/specialist fitting them.

If you was closer i would have changed them for a few beer tokens

Well I've got a rough price from James from Stone Automotive so I'd probably get him to do it. Shame your not nearer I've just PM'd G172 to get prices sorted for disks/pads all round. I've changed pads before on my previous Clio, and I probably could do the disks but I'm not confident enough to and with them being a key safety feature I don't fancy the risk.

iirc G172's rear discs don't have ABS rings ideally you need to get these from renault (T21ads)

Okay, i take it they'd come with pressed bearings though? or not?

 

[PP200t]

Fit them your self! I managed it and If I can do it, a toddler with a spanner can do it!!

 

[KielT]

Go on ECP website, pagid pads and discs on the front, pagid pads on the rear and snr discs on the rear, all OEM quality, and I think u get 25% at the moment, do a click and collect, go pick them up and fit, sorted and saved money

 

[sbridgey]

You need to buy genuine rear discs and they come with pads IIRC Fred charges £110 for them

Not really no.
