I have only used these non-grooved brembo discs like the stock car, they have been fine. Check stealer price but I doubt they can do better.
I see now brembo is offering grooved and drilled discs for a D2 S8. Haven't tried those.

Also I only use brembo pads too.

That's the same store as in the ebay link.
I think the discs you linked to are PF only, diameter 323mm. Facelift Brembo calipers take the 345mm diameter disc.

Sorry buddy, your correct ! I hit the wrong link.

It has now been edited to show both PF and FL options, and at a glance it seems to be cheaper to go direct to them via their website than through ebay !!!!!! They also have free delivery too !!!!!!

Oh and the last time I checked just for a little more info...........my stealer price for front discs was approx. £185, and £150 for front pads.



For the PF 323mm discs :


These are priced as a pair on this site (£95.06 for 2 discs) and have a quick find reference of 02-01154, and a part number 09.8324.11






For the FL 345mm discs :


These are priced per disc on this site (2 x £47.17 = £94.34) and have a quick find reference of 02-01155, and a part number 09.7941.11

Thanks for the link, damn good price for a S8, who would have thought discs are so cheap. I'm sure discs for my previous Volvo used to cost more.

So much for me trying to help ! I have ordered my previous discs from apmotorstore before and never had a problem. I actually ordered another set two days ago and paid by paypal. I have just received an email saying that my paypal payment has been refunded and the transition cancelled.

I phoned the company and was told my payment was refunded because they didn't have the discs in stock, but the guy said he would check with their purchasing department. He then came back to me and said Brembo have discontinued these discs. He said he would be surprised if I could get them anywhere now.

Crap !

Can I ask, where did you end up buying yours from at £119 ?
