Im looking for some new discs, the rear are Gti6 247x8 and the front are xsara vts 283x22, i was looking for brembo max but they dont make them in 283x22, anyone know any other good discs that will fit?
Mintex OEM stuff is epic and cheap too
Is this correct for the rear?

do you know any pads that are as good as m1144 but a bit cheaper?
Get standard Brembo discs then.
Or search mtec on eBay.
Are we American? No - right, discs it is then.
Save your money on discs, they make no difference, not one lump of metal grips better than another or dissipates heat better... It's all in the pads.
I've had both Mintex M1144s and I thought they were ace, but I've also had a set of OE spec Bosch pads, which are about £50 for the front, half the price of M1144s and although they probably don't have the same fade resistance of M1144s under extreme use, even after putting the Bosch pads round Mallory and abusing them on the road, I've NEVER found them fading...
Bite very well, lovely feel under foot, cannot fault them for the money, and they're Bosch at the end of the day, they're not cheapo chinese shit...
You pay £100 for Mintex 1144? They are only £60 on my 4 pot calipers. I would have thought gti6 ones would have been around the same.
Nah, about £100 for GTi6s or HDis....
