Re: [doc] Brakes & Tyres

Hi Martin,

If you could get me a set of pads I'd be grateful. What about discs 
for the front? I think the squealing might be because they're out of 
shape. How old are your NCTs? I think they'll degrade from the car 
standing even if they've lots of tread.

Thanks,

Stuart

Greenstuff (I think it's EBC?) will have to look it up, but price was 
in the region of £80 so a lot more than from Halfords. The thing 
about Kevlar pads is that they don't dust as much and the dist is as 
a yellowy white colour. They also last longer and grip better. I am 
going down to our parts den in Kent tomorrow if you'd like a reular 
flavour set - price is about £25 all round. If you buy me a set of 
P6000s you can have the Goodyear Eagle NCT's off my project car if 
you pay for the fitting and balancing :-) They are almost new.
