Looks like decent value to me, especially against the £600+ :cough: HUK will charge you. I need a pair of rears so may be giving these a try. Anyone else tried them?

Hi

I've just put on a set of fronts from EBC, Bradi stamped and well respected, fitted Ok and should be fine.
Mine have started to warp after one trackday, otherwise stopping power is as good as OEM. I think the Mintex 1155 are too aggressive, I get hardly any dusting and the pads have lasted a year already whilst the discs have been changed twice now.
I now see discs as disposable and pads as long wear items.?

My Mintex 1155s only last a few days. What's your problem? :D

I have some 1144 rears, if you want to swap, and you haven't used the 1155s you had.

I have the EBC discs on the front (OEM pads) as well with no issues.

Thanks Kevin,

I'm not sure what to do yet. From the Dal motorsport site, it seems they recommend a rear bias on the brakes so 1155 on the back might be better. I may swap to 1144 fronts or wait for your brake kit. Lets see.

rear bias is interesting (and surprising) I'll have to check out the Dal site myself
