My front disks on my evo are warped & Id like to change them.
Rather than go for the standards (which were warped very early in their life) what should I look at?
For road use only - not a racer & have no track day plans.

Or if you prefer something European and non wavy, EBC have a very good reputation and there designs look more OEM than the others, they do wavy too. That is what I would choose myself as an alternative to Brembo and I'm still a bit suspicious of some Chinese made stuff.

Galfers are made in Spain ,,, Arahi in China ,, but does not seem to be any difference in quality or finish in fact they look identical ... Galfers £265 a pair Arashi £110

Thanks for the replies people.
EBC would probably have been my first port of call - until chris.p alerted me to the Black Shadow site.
Thanks for the heads up :thumbsup:

I see they offer a rebuild service too, so you could maybe convert your existing carriers to full floating type with new rotors and bobbins etc?

I have Blackshadows on my SS and they are good quality and work really well.
