Do your brakes need changing? Or do you think these are a Brembo upgrade?
BTW they're not - they are Brembo aftermarket replacement parts for standard-fit items.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

There is MASSIVE difference between the cheapest aftermarket/pattern brake parts and good quality OE or trusted aftermarket brake supplier parts.
Not all aftermarket brakes can be labelled as "bad" (some can) and that thread does not mention who the supplier/brand was.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

Thanks all for the reply's. Not sure if they need changing, just read a few topics on here and theres a lot of different views and a wide range of mileage people are getting from them. Mine have done 26K now but no noise or wobbling inder braking.

No need to change them until they need doing. My discs and pads were changed at a local tyre centre and I don't know which brand they used, but after 10k they started vibrating under braking. I replaced them myself at xmas with a set from AF, http://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/discovery...-489-c.asp and they've been fine sinceSill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders
