Trouble is the tinternet is full of 90% ***** where peoples spend peanuts on goods and then complain they are crap!!

There is a reason why u pay more for brembo's etc! Yes u pay extra for a name but u also get something that worksz

You can also pay over the top for crap. Ebc regularly get slated and I recently trashed a set of black diamond pads in a morning. I've not had drilled discs but never had a problem with oe

Think it depends on how you drive, if you just potter about then nothing to worry about. But do you know any 180 drivers who just potter about!!!

Drilled discs are more likely to crack due the uneven heat stressing but they do work better!!

I'd favour the dimpled discs over the drilled as the dimples still help to vent the brake gasses, but disperse the stress and heat concentration better than the drilled holes.

Although on a road car think the grooves and holes are more for looks rather than performance. Would have to really be hammering the brakes on the roads to notice the difference.
