Front ones

Sorry Julien, I couldn't resist. I'd say Pagid are good but you will now get 54 different opinions about which is better so you have to decide for yourself really

Im with Barney Bear, Pagids, I used to prefer Mintex, until they warped too easily ( official sealed box )......

I do not know what Rover fitted from New, but the rears I took off recently the braking material came away from the pad backing plate.

I've only fitted MGR branded ones and they've traditionally been recommended and perform well. I don't get through many so can't compare. I've read lots of reports that Mintex brand tend to squeal. Everyone has their favourites, a bit like engine oil, tyres, etc. etc. really.

Hi Julien. I fitted pagid front and rear discs and pads to my car approximately 6 months ago and I'm very happy with their performance so far.
