Default Repco brake combo deal-silverline brand

Set of Silverline Brake Pads, 2 silverline Rotors & Fluid 500ml Combo for $129

I want to change the rotors and pads on the front of my AU...
I only use the car for generl driving the family around to school etc but wondering what to expect from using this brand??
Im a little strap for cash this month but dont want to buy something thats only going to cause me more problems...Any advice out there be great thanks...

Also does using a good brand pad (& rotar) give better peformance or would they last much longer before needing to change again? Thanks

I personally wouldn't touch any Silverline brake stuff.

I have had customers come through and they have had a lot of dramas with them warping and generally being cheap rubbish.

Doesn't even seem like that cheap of a deal to me. That price is heaps more than we retail rotors and pads for at work...

I would be able to freight a front set down for cheaper than that price.. delivered to your door.

Send me some details on your vehicle, and I will give you some prices with a few options for you.
