   Hey guys!
   
   Stumbled upon these on ebay, sets on rear/front brakes, any better than the standards? And would they fit saxo 98 MK1 with 16's?

   looks like standard pads and flashy disks...
   They look nice but wont do anything for your braking

   Grooved discs improve braking, the get rid of dust etc and give the pads more to "bite". Im going to go for 306TD brakes when I get my saxo, slightly bigger then VTS brakes and should be a straight easy fit.
