for 1.6 disks, any one had this set up? currently have red dot grooved disks but they're poor to say the least, would like to stick with the greenstuff pads due to the low dust (white wheels dont stay white that long anyway!)
so recommendations? don't wanna be spending too much, and im not upgrading to 2 litre ones or v6s

i had green stuff with tarox disks, standard 1.6 brakes, never had any problems with mine at all, and there was next to near no brake dust

why do you not want to go for 2 litre or V6s?

I have greenstuff pads on standard discs on my 1.6 astra
Only reason I have that set up is because the pads were done and had the greenstuff ones lyin there, just hopin the discs last a little bit longer!
