OK boys and girls. We are on the subject of which is good enough for our Transporters. I see Loz likes the Brembo range but are cheaper alternatives as good and will they perform as they should by stopping you?
These are OEM, that's the listing, and not a bad price, VW T5 T5.1 T6 T6.1 rear 294mm brake discs & pads kit JZW698601AK New genuine for sale and then we have, Rear Brake Kit (294mm X 22mm) VW T5 & VW T6 - J42321 which are cheaper still? Not in stock but can be ordered.
There may be others, but what do YOU buy and prefer if you are DIYing your own repairs? We are talking abt the rear as the front does come in different sizes. The rear may also but I'm not aware of that.
Thoughts and suggestions please or is it, You Get What You Pay For.

I like EBC brakes, particularly their greenstuff pads, just finished changing the T6 over to their ultimax grooved discs and greenstuff pads last weekend. Along with changing the rubber brake lines to HEL performance braided ones throughout. I like the initial bite that the greenstuff pads give, Whole kit cost me £412

Brake Discs / Pads - T32
Hi, has anyone fitted aftermarket (drilled/grooved etc) discs to a T32 4motion? i need to change mine in the next couple months so wondered what options there were over the standard VW ones. Any links would be handy. Also how easy to change over yourself or is it recommended to get garage to...

Draper brake caliper rewind tool, bought on the Internet I think or possibly Halfords, very good quality for the money though and it's lasted very well.

I’m sure 340mm is correct, but unsure of the rears. DellMassive has a post on here somewhere with the sizes displayed.
