Theyre great value for money and are far better in my experience than the bendix ultimates. Work well cold and take a lot of punishment. We have used these on track cars when we had no other option and they were much better than expected.

Black dust.Ultimates eat discs for brekky lunch and tea.Don't get RDA's, they warp to easily and should come with MADE REALLY REALLY CHEAP IN CHINA stamped in fluoro pink so that you know what you are getting. They are alot cheaper than DBA's for a reason. Edited 24/01/09 09:46 PM by ENVY-T

(well under $100)These are much cleaner with very little dust and work awesome.I have fitted them on the fronts of 3 BA's and also on the from of mine with the BF upgrade.Everyone has been wrapt. They work great and minimal dust. Cant go wrong in my opinion.
