My rear calipers and pads need replacing so i fancy upgrading(fronts to!)
Nothing huge and pricey as i only have a cooper.
Anyone done this and could suggest what i should go for??

I put on EBC grooved discs and green pads. Am most happy with them now they're properly bedded in. These have all the braking power I need. Cheaper too than brembos.

nice one! i decided to go for that option!:cool:
seem a bit soft just now, how long does it take for them to bed in?

Not really sure. I think it took a few weeks for mine to feel the way they should. I justt know that I was canny till I knew they were bedded in. I suppose it would depend on your driving style.

I need new pads and discs as well, the ones I'm going for are the GTT spiroslots with kevlar pads. They get good reviews over on Mini2

I fitted the front spiroslots at the end of the summer, then had the rears fitted a couple of weeks ago.

Really impressed with them.:thumbs up:
