R32 discs and pads
« on: February 09, 2015, 07:08:25 pm »
Just fitted my new r32 setup to find one of the discs is warped!

In the market for a new set of pads and discs now. Can anyone recommend the best place to get oem quality discs and pads at a good price? Already contacted the dealers and had a horrendous quote lol

Thanks

Try ECP, I got a front pair of Pagid discs and pads which is OEM quality for £139 which I thought was reasonable.

Pagid discs from ECP are far from OEM quality - absolute trash in my book.

I have the Pagid 340mm TTS ones, seem fine and cheaper than R32 ones were (still lighter too)
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

Is there any change in performance by going down to 340mm discs? And where can I source the TTS discs? Thanks guys

The opposite actually, better cooling and lighter by almost 2kg per disc.

It just eradicates the lip that forms over time, same as standard GTI discs being changed from 286 to 282mm.
