Default frs mk1 brake choice

right lads/lasses need your help

changing my discs and pads all round and wondering what you lot recommend i should be getting.

i have the belief that i should not be skimping on brakes or tyres especially on this car.

however where do you draw the line.

im thinking of a budget of £250 is this enough for a good set.

looked at mintex but i hear good and bad and im not so keen.

car will only be used on road with no track use, but this car was bought as a second car so it will be having some fun and i want to know i can stop.

thanks in advance for the help and advice much needed

Its defo worth spending that little bit more for this set up as I had this set up before i got 6pots and it was fantastic! great for fast road and the odd trackday
