Don't forget to take the wheels as well as they won't fit inside "normal" alloys!

Mr D's brake man makes good brakes.... he makes OEM for a couple of well known race car manufacturers too,

the race spider kit has been vigerously tested and is running on cars in France now too with others interested,

we're also doing a 4 pot kit to fit under standard wheels for spider this is near completion we're just waiting for the calipers to be fabricated at the moment.

I have no compalints at all, compared with AP and Alcon they are a very reasonably priced alternative
