    Have the guide pins been ground down? if not thatll account for the groove.
    Discs still look perfectly useable tbh but the fact the groove is their might need to be reflected in the price.
    Good luck with the sale

        im selling the same set up at the mo with used discs but freshly fitted pads for the same price, and the pads just cost me 50 odd quid! and for 500 quid if a buyer wanted my kit (which is provisionly sold anyway) i would just have them skimmed (mine will be freshly skimmed if needed but will be clean as they havent been sitting around) , this would only cost about a tenner each disc, this cost on a 500 quid sale could easily be absorbed !
        all im saying is that they could of been sold already if some one had asked you to move a little on price to cover skimming
        to me the discs look perfectly usable !! but if someone was fussy they or you could just have them skimmed to be sure!
        hope this helps

                Hi, this may sound like a silly question but I'm a newbie so please be gentle with me....

                the ad states "full porsches brake set up that was fitted to my s2" however there are only 2 discs and brakes - I assume for the front??
                What about the rears?

                    So can you fit only the fronts? or do you need to fit rears as well?

                    Is it a straight forward unbolt the old and then on with these or are there other modifications to make them fit?

                    Cheers

                      No real need to swap upgrade the rears if your using these on the front.
                      This is a simple plug and play conversion, straight swap for the original stuff. Like night and day with regards to performance
