Rear callipers

[MikeyH]

Hi, has anyone used the Ridex callipers from Autodoc and if so are they okay as they seem really cheap compared to the Euro Car Parts ones.

Not used the Ridex ones specifically, but I did buy and fit the Stark ones which have been fine, even on track. I don't know how the quality between Ridex and Stark will compare, but my 2p says that they are made at the same place in China and then sold to different brand names.

Thank you TheDan, on their site it states they are new, just concerned that the sliders won’t match up with my brake holders. I replaced a front one recently with one from Euro Car Parts and it was fine as it was a refurb BMW one. But the rears seem to be more pricey from them.

Is this for a sticky caliper? I've always just rebuilt them using kits from eBay as it saves a (fair) few quid.

Yes it is smorris_12, I just don’t have the time and it’s still cheaper than the garage
