think i will have to do these soon, looks lik they are not wearing evenly over the disc.

Ive looked at GSF and they were priced at £25.40, is that each disc or for an axel set?

where else could i try to get some cheap?

that will be each, saying that usually ask them what they will do as a best price face to face and they will knock a few quid off.
saying that if you can find a motoquip dealer locally they are usually cheaper my front discs were 50 quid inc vat so id expect the rears to be less by 10-15 quid.

finally managed to get them ordered.

purchased the ones off ebay in the end at £29.

Had a look at my rear discs and they are definately shot, got a lip of about 2mm now so dont think pad sits flush either, which causes handbrake and general braking to not be so good

i'd guess part of your 2mm lip is probably rust that has stuck to the outside, if you place a steel file firmly against the edge and spin the disc i reckon you will find a fair bit of that comes off.....discs are maybe not as bad as you think?
