I have had two sets of discs and EBC pads from MTEC and they are super quality so I will stick with them I think!

I know my pads & probably discs are coming up for renewing and have Pagid on hand to replace both.
However, I had the Rover pads in from new but changed them to EBC Green Stuff at 18,000 miles due to the excessive brake dust/dirty alloys.
At 59,000 I'm still on the original Rover discs + the same EBC pads and the performance has been excellent.
Just hope the Pagid do as well.

Hi David. I have used pagid brake pads twice in the last 50000 miles. The originals were changed at around 30000 miles. The car has now done 80000 miles and still on the same disc's.
