    And this guide will help you change them, it's a really very simple job click me!

    To be fair, any brakes are fine for any car...if driven normally. If the person driving has a heavy foot from time to time or all the time then you need to start looking at better brakes.

    The ones I've linked you to are Mintex and I personally think they are brilliant for normal and fast road. But make sure you bed them in correctly otherwise you WILL crack a disc and wear the pads/discs un-evenly thus reducing braking power.
