Quite impressed with them, although the scraping and squeaking during the run-in period is a bit annoying at times....

i got them from ktec, both ktec and bb use the same brakes.....HiSpec. I bought the big brake kit with 285mm discs as they are the biggest which will fit under the 15" std wheel, and as you can see it is very tight and only just fit.

You can get 300mm under 15's with the right choice of high spec caliper

How much were they mate, and were they worth it?

heeheee worked it out the other day - i do around 8 - 10k a year in the 3, but the xantia is getting some right use since i got it. Done 10k in 6months so far, and the race car has done around 300 miles with me now.

83K :shock: - since may 05 jamie - thats 4,000 miles in a year and 4 months. GET IT DRIVEN !
