Best place for new pads and discs?

[Hotwheels]

Hi Does anyone know of a supplier for discs and pads for a granturismo gt s, at a reasonable price? would prefer to buy new discs rather than skim if not too pricey. Thanks

Front or rear?

For the discs, if it's front, you are limited to Maserati OEM or Formula Dynamics in the US.
For rears, there are cheaper pattern discs available from eurospares but it is the rears that are considerably cheaper than the fronts anyway.

As far as the pads go, the OEM pads are very expensive but there are alternatives such as from EBC but not all of these have the wear sensors so you will not get a dashboard warning if they are getting low, you need to visually check them.

I've just ordered front discs and pads from scuderia. Discs were £360 each and pad set £415.
Still pricey but low for Maserati parts. If I was keeping the car I'd have gone EBC for the pads which I think were 100 for the pair.

What colour ebc? And do they have brake sensors? Cheers

I'm no expert but I was considering Yellow
and no

Scuderia Car Parts in Egham.

Easily the best prices.

(you may want to go for EBC Yellowstuff pads instead though as they are £100 vs over £400!!!)

Including VAT?

Wear sensors do not come with the pads, they have the correct cut out for it to be inserted back in though.
If sensor has worn through you get get replacements from Eurospares quite cheaply
