Advice on new brake discs
13. Apr 2011 at 16:30
 
Hi All,

I am in the process of getting new brake discs all round and wondered if anyone fitted Mintex ones before.
There is a seller on ebay who charges £50 front, £70 back.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VAUXHALL-OMEGA-MINTEX-REAR-BRAKE-DISC-AND-PADS-1999-/36012...

Looks like a good price to me  Undecided

Cheers
Dietmar

Like all brake manufacturers, Mintex make some decent stuff, and some real shite. Guess which this is Wink

If you have access to TC, use genuine ones.


Like others, I tried to save a few quid using cheap pattern, and like others, found it just creates more work, and ultimately, more expense.
