Are you sure it is the brakes ? Modernish cars with coil springs have a nasty habit of them breaking and hitting other parts, often the tyre or rim. If your luck is out it will rip the front tyre open Frosty weather makes this more common. Just had it happen, strange noise, smell of burning rubber, limp home very slowly. Noel
