Depends if you want discs that last. The only drilled discs worth having as those that have them cast in and not drilled after the fact. Cracks galour. :(

Go either plan or grooved if you have to have a pretty pattern.

I have neuspeed disc with yellow stuff pads on my R, see my sig.

These are drilled in way to help negate cracking, I have had them for about 5,000 miles no issues !

Contact Mike at Awesome gti !

Speak to DaveB and get discs from him. Job done.

You do get some droning with drilled and grooved discs and as others have said some drilled discs are prone to cracking.

At then end of the day if its cheap then you will be buying more in the near future :happy2:
