Hello mate

I use Braking discs with my BST wheels.Can't fault them.Iv'e got PVM on my other wheels-they're good but very rattly(fully floating).
I'd heard Galfers had some issues.
Brembo upgrades are supposed to be good(but,of course,the OE are Brembo too!)

I think the OEM ones are a little thinner , or you can certainly buy thicker ones

I'll vouch for them being thin.

Had to have my rear replaced after 4000(ish) miles. Went in for it's service and BMW told me it had worn below the recommended safety levels (4.48mm, minimum was 4.5mm lol)

They wanted to charge me. I argued it, because a disc should last much longer than that, I put in a PUMA request and head office agreed to do it under warranty. When I went to pick bike up they had fitted new disc, pads and caliper.

In that case,you probably didn't need the brakes!! lol!

To be honest,I had a problem with judder on my 2010 road bike on track but,meanwhile having changed pads,last time I used it on track I had no problems at all.
Having said that,the Braking Wave discs look better!
And,in case you ask,I use SBS dual carbon pads on track and SBS sintered on the road.

Brembo, alpha racing or Lucas. Thicker ones should be better on track. 5.5 or 6mm if your a braking god.
