   just a quick one, my discs have a slight lip on them. are they still ok to use or do they need replacing? do this affect braking?

   they will still be ok to use mate, but will fuck your pads up if you leave them how they are! it will affect breaking, but not drastically, and you will barely notice it if its only a slight lip buddy! i'd say change them, but if not now then deffo in a couple of thousand miles!

   they have been like it ever since i had the green stuff pads on. i have had mintex ones on for about 5 months and the lip seems to be only slightly bigger
