So, I have a bit of a problem here.
Now that I finally decided to order the discs AP and Opie don't have them anymore nor do they provide an alternative.
Any ideas guys?

Using the Ferrari 550 Maranello as a spec, you can try Brembo, or EBC, get drilled only, the grooved are noisy..!!

I bought my new discs from brakeparts.co.uk last year as neither opie nor ap had any in stock at the time and I couldn't wait

I've just booked my car in to have the discs skimmed which should hopefully rejuvenate them. They have rusted lightly after I put it away wet before the winter. Totally my fault but as I'm running AP brakes with a Koenigsegg front and standard GS discs on the rear, I really don't want a bill for a new set. I've done this before on 911s and it results in discs like new if done well.

Certainly cheaper than new discs and worth a try.

agree. my current setup does have some noise. not all the time though.

Indeed. They seem more prone to noise when they've had some surface rust, and also mine squeak when warm under low speed use.

But they stop the car, which is a plus :D

yeah, stopping has improved. But i still want to try the ebc red to see how they work on the 550's. Brake feel is very hard at the moment.
