I have Green stuff dotted and slotted discs all round and Green stuff 6000 pads. I would deferentially recommend them, they don't make a massive difference to the braking although it is deferentially improved. The main reason for going for them is that they seem like far better quality than all the other stuff around. I have had the discs on over a year now and normal discs would have started to corrode badly by now but the green stuff still look good. There's is a little bit of corrosion but not as half as much as a standard disc. Mintex are also good but I found they made quite hard pads that did squeal a bit

Best brakes of all............ a brick wall!

Greenstuff or OEM, people tend to forget just how good the original equipment parts are, this was not a £7,000 coarser when it was new and the quality of the parts reflects that.
