does anybody have these and would they be recommended? im just confused as to which brakes to upgrade to!

[Swervin_Mervin]

I think there's a Wilwood group buy going on at teh mo. You'd be better off doing that I think.

[Clio-Girl]

i know but the group buy is just calipers at least with this one it comes as a set!

[stevie_b]

The group buy comes with everything you need apart from the discs. So that's the calipers and pads and braided hoses. It fits the standard sized discs as well, so if the ones on your car are currently in good condition then there would be nothing else you would need.

in the k-tec add it says, hoses are extra and brake pads are extra...

[summeh]

christ, 520+vat for the 285mm kit, plus pads and hoses. Thats an expensive kit. You'd be better off with the wilwood kit tony is doing.

The 300mm+ options won;t be available to you unless your rims are bigger than 15's.

[Martin]

I concur...k-tec kit is pricey and 285mm discs offer little over the stnd discs imo

[busterhymes]

i could tell by watching you on the track! and im going to get avo coilovers too ive decided!

k tec kit is a hi-spec kit. better calipers than the wilwood and a better selection of disc sizes upto 325mm items.

but overkill in most respects really.

wilwood kit is fine if your running 15,s.

[Andy]

willwoods are proven and parts are available when evr you need them

i would get them hun

[richy]

the wilwoods are more then upto the job, i understand why ppl put 325mm discs/ap 4/6pots etc on very high powered cars but you just dont need them on a clio unless its a fecking maxi lol

:lol:

[Andy]
