Best place to get replacement pads for AP Racing brakes?

Hi All,

Have a word with "Brembo Bill" @ www.badger5.co.uk. He's always busy, best to use his mobile.

It'd be worth speaking to him, because at some point you WILL need new discs...

Badger5 only works with Brembo products, not AP Racing products

Incidentally, when the time comes to replace the AP brake discs, the best discs to buy are the ones from Performance Friction (www.performancefriction.com) Hands down, they are THE best brake discs available

Thanks E92Fan, you've been a great help. I wrote to Ant will wait for his reply.
BTW what are your views on the RS 5 and the RS 4-2?

The RS5 is a race pad, and not suitable for the road.

RS4-2 is the most aggressive pad available for normal street use. It's got higher friction response than the RS421 pad, but takes a little more heat to get into it's proper working zone. The RS42 is perfect for "fast road" driving styles, but may be a little noisier than the RS421 pads.
