Have a look in the group buy section, there are deals on red dot and 3g discs ongoing.

Other than that, if you want standard ones, probably AA is best.

Speaking of alternatives...

Not as cheap as standard, but standard ain't grooved.

Forgive me if I'm missing something but they only quote 16V Turbo for those discs. Thought yours was a 20VT and didn't think the discs were compatible (happily have someone with more knowledge prove me wrong though)

I've got a set of the fronts. Drilled and grooved with OMP fast road pads. Probably not the best combo you can buy but not too bad imho.

No squeal at all from mine as yet but they did take some time to come up. They were bloody lethal from cold for a while!

I don't really have anything much to compare them with though, so can't give you any comparisons.

Correct, the discs are not compatible. Different sizes.

Nope - I have mailed em for a price for a 20vt, and they quoted:

Can you give me a price for front and rear disks for a 1996 Fiat
Coupe 20v Turbo

I got a set off AA and they're mince, leave the car as little as a day and it sounds like you're through to metal on the pads the first couple of times you press the brakes, I assuming that they're rusting up in the short period of time left stationary :-(

Must be rubbish metal.

And don't even get me started on the pads I got with them
