The 190's are smaller than the 180's

Brake pads,front ( 1 set )
All models - exc : 190PS MG ZT/ZT-T SFP 100511
MG ZT 190PS ZT-T 190PS SFP 000040

How old is your car Chill, ZT brakes can be a bit of a minefield tbh. Eg - vented rears on a 180 - didnt expect to see that !

Chilljohn,
I have no issues with fitting supplied materials, downside can be if they are incorrect a % of labour would still stand.
I have not used grenstuff before although i recall some people claiming they are too hard / eat the discs ?
I am not sure but something has been triggered in the depths of memory. Do a search on .org maybe able to gain you some knowledge.
