Hi just wanted some advice on whether or not to buy these front discs or not, I drive my car normally on a day 2 day basis so are these discs worth getting for normal road use or just better to buy standard cheaper ones cos im not doing track days or anything? your opinions are very welcome as im undecided whether its worth the extra cost. thanks

I've no experience with OMP brakes before so not sure if they are good on track..although i'm sure they will perform sufficiently with normal road use.

I got my brakes from these guys and they seem to be performing pretty well for the money.

As for the rotor discs, I think they are just a gimmick...and ugly!

I had these OMP brakes on my 20V NA and they were awesome! However, they were eating supplied with the set OMP pads like crazy. I think the pads were made from soft compound... Other than that would definatelly recommend them! wink

I have OMP pads on my 20VT on the standard discs and I would recommend them for fast road use. They certainly apppear better than the OE fiat pads.
