mtec brakes

Hi,
Has anyone brought mtec brakes off ebay 290510275819, look ok, good price, but not to suer with mintex pads are that good, I've heard they are prone for the discs to crack.

I put a set on my mondeo st diesel I know not got the performance of the golf but had them on for about 1and a half years and are really good to be fair

Before I did the R32 upgrade on my old TDI, I put a set of mtec discs on. Had no problems and were quickly posted.
Only thing I would say is get the BLACK coating as it helps maintain the nice look!

I seconds this that the only thing they start to rust but not major I just painted over mine and look spot on

I 3rd the above, I had mTec discs on the GTI before the R32 setup and they were fine... they were a little noiser than standard but not overly so, but didn't really improve braking any (drilled/slotted) but looked pretty cool.  I'd consider them again in 345 once these discs have been dusted.

I don't rate them, replaced all mine for plain ones having done under 3000 miles. Fronts started vibrating under braking and stones getting caught in the holes.

Thanks guys,
Going to take the plunge and buy some tomorrow.

Although mine never cracked, it's a lot less likely if you go slotted only (which they do)

Big enough I'd say. 

And bloody heavy enough too. Must honestly weigh as much as a horse.

Here's the set I'm looking at buying 160599986433 bit cheaper too

Try the mtec website, I think they're a bit cheaper direct.
