I had them, with plain discs. They were fantastic, never faded, had no wear whatsoever on them after 4000 miles.

Well worth the money, but buy the plain discs, they're better than drilled/grooved.

Got these on mine, they are awesome. Definately upgrade your brake hoses too. Never had any problems with them.

The plain ones are genuine GM ones, the grooved ones aren't, the grooved ones go like this -

you need braided hoses too, which are ~£30, and they need a little bit of grinding on the caliper to go under speedlines, or some 3mm spacers.

i've got 284's under mine, Turbo/V6 calipers with Fiat Coupe EBC drilled and Groved discs.

Love them, never had any bother with them but i think i need to upgrade the hoses.

Just another option for you..
