craggsy 91 Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Its all personal preference mate. You will get fans of each type.Me, personally, have the EBC ultimax discs front and back. Picked em mkore for looks really as I think standard discs look too plain. But saying that I have enclosed wheels 90% of the time so cannot be seen Link to post Share on other sites
soul-2-soul 3 Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Had Zimmerman, Tarox & Black Diamond & prefer the Black Diamond (grooved only). Big fan of Ferrodo DS Pads as well. Link to post Share on other sites
patpong_pete 0 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Black Diamond (grooved only)why grooved only and not drilled as well ? Link to post Share on other sites
soul-2-soul 3 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Drilling holes in discs make them more prone to cracking & the holes are there more for looks than anything else. had grooved on a previous car & when they wore against the advise of my garage at the time(BR Motorsport) went for the drilled & grooved. Made no difference to the braking performance at all but wore quicker. After that went back to grooved which lasted longer & have stuck with grooved ever since.Check out this site on brake upgrades I found it an interesting readhttp://www.raceshopper.com/tech.shtml#brake_performance Link to post Share on other sites
