I think its because its on uneven ground on the pics with the new wheels tbh, the ride height looks ok in the first pic to me, i've got pics of mine on similar surfaces and the ride height looks weird.

Very nice looking Saph.

Difference in the Calipers are the Pro ones have anti knock back plates, no dust seals, can have higher temp seals, and Steal pistons as an option etc. The road versions have anti rattle plate and dust seals.

Very nice!!! -Best colour too!

Do you find the collins mounts give much more vibration than standard? Hope the local police dont mind the front plate! My mrs got pulled last time she drove mine cos of the size of the front plate...
