I know that for some vehicles that is always the right answer (one of my bikes has amazing brakes but ONLY if you use genuine OE pads).

I got mine off fleabay as part of my complete front rear brake overhaul and they worked out very cheap indeed. Feel and response is good, but the front end of mine is heavier than yours i feel having the big TD6 engine up front and the soft pig iron gm box |

If you have Brembo calipers then you should always go for OEM otherwise you'll probably get a weird shudder / squealing. I use non genuine for the rear but always genuine for th Brembo bits. |

why are the brembo pads so expensive for the 4.4tdv8 (£160 opposed to about £65 for the 3.6tdv8) ???? |

hmmmm, ebay has the 4.4 brembo pads front/rear for around £90 and the 3.6 front/rear for around £75, so not a lot of difference.. ... - .- -.

For the 2006- TRW caliper we have TRW @ £34.93 or Juratek @ £18.15 - don't be fooled by the price we sell loads and zero complaints so far!
