I wouldnt want to fit disks that have been drilled by a chap on the corner.....

Drilled disks, if they are not done properly can shatter leaving you with no brakes and bits of brake disk lodged in your engine lol!

I've done about 12k miles on a set of these from ebay although it doesnt say on the listing the discs are actually made by Lockheed (well at least mine were) and I've been well happy with them not bad at all for £70.

As for pads I chose Ferodo DS Performance which are superb albeit a little bit squeaky sometimes.

Just get a 10mm drill bit and make a few holes :lol:

On a more serious note...get some G60 carriers and upgrade to a 280mm set up with standard discs. Much better tbh. The Gti callipers are big enough to hold the 280s so all you need is discs and callipers
