How many of you guys would buy these wheels even if it meant taking your AP's off and going back to standard brakes ?

I really really hope that the wheels do fit over AP's,hi spec etc so everybody will go out and buy some and then rondells/engells will become rare again

Just seen them on a car at National day. The guy had Hi Spec 6 or maybe 4 pots on the front with easily 330 disks on it & the Hi Spec 4 pot rear conversion as well.
The front brakes looked a tight fit but the Rear brakes looked fine.

Has the chap said how strong they are, ie for trackday abuse etc?. I'd hate to buy a set and them be racing with them and have them come apart
Has nobody tried them under 6 Pot APs yet either?

I would love a set of those but I'm not buying untill I know who manufactured them, etc...
A rim is WAY too important for a car to not know to what spec it was made.
