My front discs are below the wear limit and therefore need replacing. The rears however have plenty of life on them. The pads are both reasonably newish (especially the rears) although I know it is good practise to change the pads when changing the discs. The pads I have on there are EBC greenstuff and I am wondering whether to upgrade to EBC discs all round. Please share your views with me on EBC discs or any other brands. I am currently out of work so I have a fairly tight budget to stick too hence my reason for choosing EBC. My other option is just replace the front discs with factory spec discs, would it be advisable to go with the honda genuine discs over the ebay/motor factors discs?

Thanks in advance

 

I had them (red stuff discs and pads all round) and may have been something up with my brakes, but they were bloody noisy. Got a constant wooshing noise that wouldnt go away even after some bedding in.

Worked well though!

If you do go for them I have a code thats gets you further online discount

Thanks for the reply, does anyone have any pics of the EBC discs and pads on an s2000? Im also replacing them from a cosmetic point of view as long as functionality ids not affected. I had the same sort of noise with my green stuff pads but they stopped making this noise after about 4/5 months. I realise the S2k is more suited to the red stuff pads now plus the extra bit of red may help compliment the cars features

 

If you're running on a budget i'd go for discs from brakes international http://www.brakesint.co.uk/.

 

I use EBC discs and find them very good, but i dont use their pads. Usually have Mintex or Ferrodo - whatever kwikfit wanna give me free hehe

EBC grooved and dimpled on the front with Redstuff. The discs look good, but honestly I don't think there's any performance benefit. I've never noticed any noise from them.

 

http://www.brakesint.co.uk/ - can't rate them enough excellent service and dam cheap too!

 

I'm using the Brakes Int. discs at the moment with some Black Diamond Predator pads, stunning so far, need some more miles on them yet though.

 

Cheers, Where can I buy the pads? Brakesint doesnt seem to have them on their site or do I just give them a buzz?

The pads im intereted in after seeing the opinions here are:-

Black Diamond Predator
Ferodo DS2500
Red stuff

I think I shall stick with blank discs and just uprated pads for the front to keep costs down. Im hoping I can do this for about ~
