I went to get my pads changed in Kwikfit the other day on my Alfa 156 GTA only to be told that they're upgraded Brembo ones and that no local tyrefitting place etc would be able to do them. As i dont know the exact type/size i need because im a bit of a thicko concerning these thing lol( ive checked my quite substantial service history + everything BUT brakes are in it!). Where do yous recommend that i could go + they'll know exactly what needs done at a reasonable price! Im based in Newtownabbey so quite central.

Thanks

Clearly KwikFit are complete dummies.
