Anyone used TRW Brake Discs?

It's either those or Textar most probably.

Textar is OEM. TRW I think is Lucas. I've had a front set of TRW pads and they were decent, never had their discs.

Aren't the OE pads Brembo, or just the calipers?

Eurocarparts have front & rear Brembo pads as well front Brembo discs but no rears. Would like to have them all Brembo really :scratch:

I've got Brembo pads on the rear just now. They are decent. Textar or Pagid is OEM I think. Brembo for the calipers.

I use Sebro discs and Textar pads (M030). I found Pagid yellows squeal like a stuck pig. I had a Pagid rear disc distort after it overheated (handbrake shoe came loose). The discs with holes in can't remember manufacturer were rubbish. No experience of TRW discs but their suspension arms for the 993 were good and cheap. Chances are they mostly come from the same factory and are rebranded.
