I can get 15% discount from the stealers for front pads. Thats for OEM pads only, which with VAT is £52.
Does anyone know of any makes of pads thats worth fitting instead for simular sorta money,With better braking in their experiance.
cheers

cheers Rob for that too. 40% off genuine pads are a very good deal aswell.
Did i read somewhere that there is a type of pad that fits the standard caliper that gives better breaking ??

Bosch OEM are £22 a set on trade through a wholesale outlet. Pagid do a good OE spec pad as well.

Try your local Andrew Page (if you have one nearby) for Bosch. Eurocarparts sell Pagid OE pads.

Apprieciate that Lion :happy2:
but at £30 a set, thats £20 less then from Stealers so, postage i wouldnt of thought would be more then a Fiver at a guess.

I can also recommend the lads down at brakesint :happy2:
The pads at £29 will be OE equivalent Bosch/Jurid most likely and will probably work out at £40 posted to you steve as its £29 plus the VAT etc, its a shame but brakesint have stopped stocking Textar/Pagid iirc as they were well worth the extra £15 for a better pad compound imo...
My choice Steve would be Mintex M1144 (MDB2604 1144), shoot DaveB a PM as he can get a cracking price on these and they are a HUGE improvement over OE spec pads, budget around £85 but worth every penny :happy2:
