Morning,

I need to replace my rear discs and as my car is going back in 2-3 weeks do I need to replace with OEM? Car is just over 2 years old

Thanks

Why replace them if the car is going back?

[matt@stratford]

Cos 1 of them is scored when the pad wore through

Put some new (cheap) pads in and they will smooth out the scoring.

No one will notice if you stick some shit like Pagid or Mintex on there.

Why do you have to replace the tyres?

I've got a pair of Pirelli RF rears with 4-5mm tread, yours for £40

My fronts have worn on the outer edge and bordering illegal. So I was going to put my front run flats back on and buy some part worn rears

Edges don't matter, as long as the 3/4 central grooves are above 1.6 they're fine:

Yep, sitting in my garage, so don't be buying new tyres to give a car back.

Do these look legal??? I'm not convinced. Dam iPhone pics not showing

Upload them to http://postimage.org and copy and paste the "hotlink for forums" links in here.

Are you looking for rear brake pads? I have some with some life left in them. MSport blue brakes.

Ah good. No, just replaced the pads. Should really have replaced the discs but didn't want to spend the money when the car is going back

[NISFAN]

Some heavy braking should disguise the scored discs
