All depends on the thickness of the discs

say a 330x32mm would last longer than a 330x28mm the more vains they have in the discs the cooler they run

the best 330 discs are 330 x 36mm with 48 vain these will last for ages but these are expensive

LOL

there was only 6 blocks left over , i would build you a house mate


if you go for the 330x 36mm with 48 vain ,you will need calipers to match the 36 mm

Thats why i went 356 x36mm x48 vains for lastabilty
