    Hey guys,

    Just wondering if anyone has experience of buying disc brakes etc. off ebay?
    I'm looking at a set and wondering if it's a bit dodgy buying something that important from ebay?

    Here's the link

    Apologies for the whole drilled and grooved if anyone thinks they're a bit boy racerish but I was told they're better brakes to have on your car.

    Thanks in advance.

    Those discs are OEM discs, grooved and drilled nothing more, nothing less. Don`t expext much of a difference in terms of stopping, grooves are there for acting as channels to get rid of excess water. Be aware that if not correctly drilled these discs can disintegrate in no time. Go for dimpled and grooved ones-you`ll not going to notice any considerable difference but they might improve the look of your car. I recommend spending more on quality pads-green stuff or red stuff if stopping performance is what you after. ;)
