Black Diamond Discs...


Recommended Posts

Posted

Guys,

 

As much as I would like the big daddy of all discs (for obvious reasons), I cannot justify spanking top dollar at the moment.

 

I'm going to be buying DS2500 pads and am considering pairing them with Black Diamond G6 discs (6 groove design).

 

Any feedback/reviews on these discs?

 

Have you used them on track?

 

Thanks

Plenty of people using the DBA T2 disc which is similar in price to the Black Diamond. These are fine for a bit of track use and will work well with the DS2500.

 

If you are serious with your trackdays then the heat treated T3 is what would recommend and again what a lot are using.

 

Drop me a PM if I can help further :)

Looking at Demontweeks website (appears they have a sale on brakes) the black diamond G6 discs front and back are £264, I can't find the T2 discs for a similar price to this.

 

PM sent :)

I thought DBA were more expensive by some distance, thats why I bought BD a few years back instead of DBA - absolutely fine on the road no problems at all.

There seem to be some reports of black diamond discs warping with time. Before our old zed bit the biscuit I thought ours were going that way too. When the new Zeds need replacing I'll be going DBA T2.

TBH it as just something that id read about a faint judder when braking which started happening after a few years. Not something I was concerned about at the time (or now), they stopped very well, noticeably better than the OEMs. I have no regrets over buying them just having my time again id go with the more expensive option. I was never unhappy with them.

Miles better than OEM, ran mine for 6 months before I sold the car and worked very well, more than enough capability for my driving style (ie not that fast)
