Do i go with drilled/grooved or plain standard
Ive heard that drilled/grooved discs wear pads down quicker?
whats your thoughts?
cheers

Just go for standard/uprated standard discs IMO. Yeah I'd imagine they would wear them quicker...

i used to run stock but the only reason I run drilled and grooved discs all round is because i got them all for £50!
RE: discs - unsure - ben87 - 04-10-2012
yea i had stock then when i bought new discs a garage offered to groove and dimple them all for £20,its only a £20 difference in choice,the rears will probs be needed soon so it wont look too "odd" then have 2 normal and 2 drilled lol

Drilled and grooved discs on my D turbo were amazing compared to standard ones
RE: discs - unsure - JackLewis_Dturbo - 05-10-2012
if your going for after market i would go for just grooved as its known for drilled to crack under harsh breaking...

Not under harsh breaking, after repeated heat cycles. And they'll probably only fail if they are either a: shit, or b: used on track and get hot and cold a lot under some serious abuse.
On a road car, you're not gunna notice the difference in fade against standard discs. Imo anyway.
