Disc italia d/s rotors and pads

These are supposed to be the best. Ive had on for 700miles and they still dont break too good. The car seems to pull to the right when i break hard. I no sometimes it can take 1000 miles to break in so we shall see. These were 450 for rotors and 150 for pads.

Rotors and pads should be bedded in as per the manufacturers instructions. They should never take more than a few miles to be properly bedded in. Usually takes 5-15 near panic stop braking episodes to bed them in.

Nice looking, but I would never spend that much for wear items.
