cranny Donating Members 123 Member For: 17y 23d Gender: Male Location: Sydney NSW Posted 05/01/10 06:07 AM Share Posted 05/01/10 06:07 AM Hey Guys, I require all of your expert opinions and experiences. I have a BF typhoon with 4 pot front Brembos. And it is now time to change pads and Rotors. I can get a set of genuine 355 Brembo rotors for $700 or I can get a set of DBA 4000 Gold Rotors for $650. WHAT DO I CHOOSE?Here is my opinion: I think that I should go Brembo why because they are original and because there Brembo or are the DBA better Rotors?2nd question what are the best pads for the 4 pots and a part Number would be helpful Really appreciate your input Guys Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/64846-help-dba-vs-brembo/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be impressed with those pads on your brembo calipers.Benny Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/64846-help-dba-vs-brembo/#findComment-968330 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are lucky to get 2 pad changes out of them.I would get the DBA as they will last much longer.

Lighter unsprung weight and don't transfer braking heat to front wheel bearings too.
