Cant really comment on the quality but just price them against any other mintex supplier and you will see how good value they are!!

get ahold of some GTI carriers and 312mm discs. that's a cheap upgrade isn't it? and with a decent set of pads would stop you better i'd imagine...

There is a lot of fake car parts / brake discs and pads about ... especially on ebay.  These are more than likely legit but if they turn out to be a lot cheaper you have to ask yourself why.  Do a bit of homework on the seller or just go to a reputable outlet.

ECP sell Pagid stuff which is the same pretty much as Mintex - just trade as different brands but owned and manufactured by the same company.
