Do you have the bolts James?
How much posted to me

 

I will have a look Jason but they Re just a couple of standard bolts mate. Pm me your postcode and I will get a price for postage

 

Just thought I would add to this that James is a 100% honest person to deal with and keeps to his word totally.
Thanks again James

 

So the Reyland bigger discs turned up today, so thought as its a nice afternoon I would fit them ready for the summer.
Looks much better behind the bigger wheels

 

Not only looks better but should improve the all important braking power as well.

 

I like it. Nice simple upgrade this kit offers and the brakes don't look lost behind the wheels anymore. I understand the standard 4 pots were really quite good for the 80's. What's the clearance like between the caliper and wheel? Does the pad cover the full area of the disc or is there a small unswept portion next to the bell? I might see if i can squeeze a set on behind my comp cxn's. I keep looking at the track 295 kit but its a large outlay. This may be a good compromise. Definitely works well on the wallet. Let us know how it works on the road.

 

The pad does cover most of the disc, clearance is fine, you just have to file the leading edge to stop disc rubbing callipers.
Yet to try it on the road yet tho
