Are the front rotors the 298mm or the 322mm ? The pads are the same and start from $80 for a decent road pad and the 298mm 4000 series slotted are $150each and the 322mm 4000 series slotted are $231each thankyou.The DBA would be the better choice in my opinion.

BFII GHIA just uses the standard BF 298s from memory.

Or if you want a decent upgrade ... try and get the BF 6T/8 front calipers and 322mm rotors in slotted. It's something I want to eventually do myself.

Matt has these upgrade kits from my understanding as well.

I'm 99% sure the 3v's in BF2's have the 322mm rotors as per xr6t and xr8.

Should have measured them when I had the wheels off last night.
