Hi,

How hot can the brake disc front and rear get maximum for normal driving on road?

Air temp. here in Norway is normaly never much over 77 Fahrenheit.

Norway is very restrictiv in top speed and speed controls, so no trouble with brake disk temperature.

Driving down the deep tunnels under the ocean I guess is where I get highest temp and down the mountains on a warm summer day.

I will use a 200 degree celcius paint, should be good to go then... I hope...

I don't know how hot a brake disk gets. It seems to me you'd need a paint suitable for the highest possible expected temperature. The disk probably gets very hot applying the brake going down a mountain .
