Hello everyone the time has come to buy some new brakes for the front of the car what would everyone recommend buying also thinking of a upgrade all together would it be worth it? If so what ones are people using? Thanks in advance
John.
I've gone down the road by using Reyland discs around with Ferodo DS2500s at the front with Ferodo Premier at the rear.
On the road there awesome mate.

i know someone selling some rear j hook 310mm bolted reyland discs. So you’d only need to source the front discs.Ideal ok then have been looking at them with the j hooks but bolted instead of floating also seen alot of revo set ups for sale as a upgrade wasn't sure if they where any good

The Revo set up are rebranded Alcons.
The fixed 2 piece Reylands are in my mind a good cost effective upgrade mate.
Btw the J hook rears mention by Jay are a set I've got up for sale due to another Reyland disc upgrade PM me for details if intrested.

I see thanks dell would be well interested in the rear but they haven't been on there long so will wear them down first but thanks for the offer and ideal I'll get some of the reyland disk ordered as do like the look of them and will see if that sell the pads at the same time

Reyland recommend Ferodo DS2500s mate.

Why not get Dells discs and sell your standards on? Or better still keep them for as of when you return to standard.

Does that price include the caliper brackets Dell?
Are they RS6 rears so you need a 57mm spigot ring or have made disks to fit without the need for one

Same deal as your fronts you get adaptor brackets,fixing bolts,8P/8v dedicated bells & discs so no spigot ring required mate.
