Brembo , EBC or other make ?

Hi,
Mine has done 27K hard driving on its pads & disks.. Just had 1st MOT & I am in need of replacements - All Round !

So my question is .. What brand do I fit ?

I refuse to pay LR prices for originals, if this is the best that they last for ..
I am thinking I may go EBC ( standard ) pads & disks all round
Or
Brembo pads .. But what disks with them ?


Totally confused, annoyed & frustrated !

Cheers

Check out island 4x4 they are doing Delphi discs which are a good brand and EBC pads,they also do a excellent service usually next day delivery.

Try partslandrover on ebay. Good guy who is very helpful and other members recommend him. He has genuine front discs and pads listed plus rear pads at the moment. He may have the rear discs but not listed. Good value, and personally, I'd stick with OEM having struggled to bed in pattern parts in the past. 2016 BMW X3 30d SE in red

As Delphi is OEM then you won't have a problem,I only ever fitted Delphi to my old D2 along with most of the D2bc without any problems what so ever.

Cheers guys ...

It's the disks that's my biggest dilemma

I can't believe my original rear disks are so scored after 27K ..
So,

Do I go with :-
budget option... Britpart, Veco
or more expensive ... Delphi, mintex ...
Or really expensive .. LR Original , EBC , Brembo.

Like I said I am very loathed to fit original after they way these have worn

The Indy I use said in his opinion to keep away from mintex for an FL2. If you are buying online then it's worth a look around to see if there are any deals on, or there are a couple of site sponsors that might have what you need at a good price? Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.
