hi folks. ive just fitted my 18inch rondells today but the brakes look tiny behind the wheels. what big brake upgrade would you recommend for the frt and rear and rough prices please.

thanks scott

 

how much do you want to spend?

get some pics up of your car with the new alloys

 

it also depends how you gonna use the car...only road...or road/track sometimes...or a lot of track..

 

Hi spec 335mm 6 pots about £1200

 

give martin a ring and get some 355, 6 pots APs mate you carnt go wrong with them, will cost a little bit more than hi spec but better and also be worth more if you want to sell them latter on

 

And get a big disc kit for the rear using standard calipers....

 

here is pics of the new wheels

car is only road used

 

 

Hi Scott

The car looks

Cheers Malc

 

only road used..then 4pots 330mm a good enough...

 

where is the best place to order from.

 

What suspension have you got on that mate?

 

its koni adjustables. not sure how much its been lowered.

what would be better brembo brakes or ap brakes

 

I have just bought some brembos but not on yet, AP's are meant to be the best but i couldnt afford them.

 

True m8 but for about another £200 u get 6 pot calipers, 356mm discs
and they are also 4 mm wider


If your gonna buy a set get it right 1st time and get the biggest you can afford

 

what kind of brakes are they. also where from

thanks scott

 

how much diffence in braking is there between the 330mm 4 pots and 356mm 6 pots?

 

I changed from 330mm 4 pots to 356mm 6 pots APs,
they both work like you would not believe
I actually found the 6 pots to be not quite so sharp and more progressive
but trust me you will never run out of braking
