How to Choose the Right Brake Discs for Your Car
Using our car parts finder above makes it easy to find the right brake discs for your vehicle, but there are a few key things to check for a perfect fit.
First, determine whether you need front brake discs or rear brake discs, as they differ in size and fitment. Next, check the diameter and thickness of your existing discs to ensure your new brake discs match your vehicle’s specifications. You should also confirm the bolt hole pattern and mounting type to guarantee compatibility.
At My Motor World, all our brake discs are sold in pairs because we believe in replacing them together for even, safe braking performance.
How Long Do Brake Discs Last?
On average, brake discs last around 50,000 miles or more. However, we recommend checking them every 10,000 miles for signs of wear, corrosion, or warping. The lifespan of your brake discs can vary depending on driving style, road conditions, and manufacturer recommendations.
Signs That Your Brake Discs Need Replacing
- Vibrations or shuddering when braking
- Squeaking or grinding noises from the brakes
- Your car pulling to one side when braking
These symptoms can indicate worn, warped, or damaged brake discs, and we recommend having them checked by a professional for safety.
Complete Your Brake System Maintenance
When replacing your brake discs, it’s important to check the condition of your brake pads, as worn pads can affect braking performance and shorten the life of your discs. You may also want to top up or replace your brake fluid to ensure your brakes function efficiently and safely.
We also stock a wide range of braking essentials, including brake drums, brake shoes, handbrake cables, and hydraulic components.
