My new brakes - Galfer Extreme kit

Hi. I want to share with you some images of the new brake kit I got for my bella. Its Galfer Extreme kit, and came as a set consisting of discs, pads, brake fluid and anti vibration shims.

Galfer

Manufacturing quality seems much better than OEM components, I hope the discs will not rust as much. The aluminum disc centers look nice, match color of my calipers When the disc wears out it is enough to buy the rotors and these discs save some weight too (5,5kg vs 6,3kg OEM disc but who will notice the difference ).

Installation is the same as replacement of standard components, except carbon shims placed on the backside of the brake pads to reduce squeal.

And how do they brake? No idea yet The car stays in garage as now we have some wind storms here with a lot of water and fallen trees on the roads As soon as I drive them in, I will let you know
