Default Brake Depot ?

Brake Depot eBay page, offer some interesting brake discs.

But is it case of beware of eBay products or am I wrong ?

Wouldn't mind some reviews, before I spend abit on Dixcel disc's / pads set.

I personally wouldn't buy brakes off ebay. I don't know why, I just wouldn't haha.

Also im not sure why you would when Mtec make some great brake discs for Similar Prices: http://www.mtecbrakes.com/brake-disc...-99-12-09.html

I have the C hook Discs and I think they are great. Plus they look better than any others

Just get OEM replacements, they're more than fine for road use and the occasional track day.

Whilst not all discs are equal, you really can't go wrong with the cheap ones from BI.

Cheap enough to crack and put another one on, no dramas.

Not keen on drilled and grooved for road use.

Just seen the C hook discs, they look great, I'm guessing you would recommen them then ?

Also been looking project MU pads from Hendy if anyone can give me reviews on them please.

Yeah I've had the C hooks on the front for a few months and they are great. I've literally just ordered some more for the back
