[Shabba168]

Is anyone running forge brakes

There are 2 options 330 or 358mm second one needs 18" wheel

I have the 356mm forge brakes

I find them amazing im running 18" alloys though

The 330mm will be just as good though

Im thinking  about running the 356 kit - Any feedback??

I have these on my MK5 GTI

The bite from cold is amazing no need to get the pads warm like some pads.

I have had no brake fade what so ever.

They have been on the car for just under a year (Jan 2012)

The discs have not worn and the pads are still near new.

I cannot recommend these enough. you will NOT be disappointed with them.

The car has been around the Nurburgring ring , around bruntingthorpe track and has done around 7000 miles since fitting them.

....I still remember taking you for a ride in mine soon after I had had my AP Racing brakes fitted and having to brake hard when a coach changed lane without indicating (as they do!). You were impressed with the braking power. Better to have good brakes and not need them than to need them and not have them.
