Speak to Joff off Corsa-b.co.uk, I got them off him. £120 delivered. Mine are the 288mm 4stud v6 drilled and grooved ones they look shit hot.

They work well apperently, i've got the calipers, just need the pads and braided hoses now.

It's a wise choice to get braided hoses on the V6 conversion so i hear... Stop the peddle being so spongey...

So back to the question are they worth spending the cash on? Will be normal everyday use, not Broster abuse!!

i've never driven a car for a long time with them, but i had EBC ones, and warped them. to be honest, if you're buying from LMF, i wouldnt bother paying the extra, unless you prefer the look of them

Do any Vauxhalls have 4 stud V6 brakes??

I thought all V6's were 5 stud

I assume you mean 288mm discs?

Black diamond ones will come 5 stud so will need re-drilling

I can get prices for any vehicle.

Rob


PS i know the LMF ones are already drilled to 4 stud as thats where my 308's came from.

However LMF ones are far from cheap!!!
