Pagid RS 4.2.1 or Ferrodo DS2500 - most people first choice is either of these - proven time and again. EBC Red Stuff Ceramic also good but don't last too long I have heard, but cheaper. Brian []

Right - that's it - I'm going for the angled-look - away to garage to root out the H&S!!!!!!!!!! (And the earplugs) PM me with the tyres/price/location/size of the tyres you got? Maybe see the beast at the weekend if there are 5 minutes. Brian []

I think some UK cars can lower the seat but not imports IIRC. Roof rails?

If it is a saloon it does not lower.

They are the business! []

True - just done lots of searching and asking suppliers - and they said 215/45 as it will fit and improves the comfort aspect. I'll be going 215/40/17 due to the suspension height and travel I have.

I am sure they said new - but I could be wrong. They would obviously take your old one to sell as a refurbed caliper or whoever does the exchange. It would take quite a while for a caliper to become faulty again so unless I was planning on keeping the car for a seriously long time, I would not consider the stainless parts - I'd rather fit AP's or equivalent in the long term. Brian []

Maybe I need 40's too then????? []

Speak to AWD - they are available on an exchange basis I am sure - less than £100 with your old caliper gets you a new one! Refurb would be madness at that price, other than the cheap refurb of the seals. Brian []

215/45/17's is what I am going for - after doing reading, browsing, asking (including Extreme Motorsport) they said the 45 profile every time. The wisdom seems to be the handling and comfort is just that bit better - one even said the 40 profile was madness when a 45 will fit. My car is pretty low as it is and my flaps sit almost on the ground - they scrape on the pavement lip (which is dipped) to my driveway [] I am looking for 45's although the 40's are a good bit cheaper. Brian []

Is that the new plate??? My initials must be BHP then []

Where can you get the tyres for those prices? And what are they?????

Woul not fancy cleaning those wheels either - that would be a tootbrush job all the way []

Note the obligatory "16v" stick on chrome badge on the spoiler. Very similar to putting Turbo on your sunstrip IMHO.

Good advert. Shows its' been well looked after. Brian []

Iain,whats the best or what do you use for tyres,i always get the spray stuff that only lasts about 1or 2 days,or is this normal,i'm lucky if i get time too wash car once a week ,is there anything that lasts that long for tyres? Swissol Pneu - not cheap but is the business!

No they don't but mine are 15's - Gus' are 16's so they might????? Don't think so though. Mine just clipped the edge of the caliper [] Otherwise, I'd be sticking with these light 15's.

Looking good Fee - have white myself - who done the refurb? And did I see NANKANG tyres on those OE wheels???????????? Brian []

No worries - let me know how you get on with DP or whatever you get?????? Brian []

No worries. What's DP?

Where are you gonna get your wheels Gus????? If you are in tomorrow drop me a text around lunchtime and I'll pop over to see the beast []

Good response [H]

If only 4 pots would fit under them....................... What wheels are you getting??? I have been debating for months - my anthracite newage ones would look good but need tyres for them....

My brakes are as good as my four pots were on the WRX - Mintex pads, Brembo discs etc and properly set up - but putting the brake gear on it (with the wheels etc) will make it immense!!!!!!!!! Brian []

Yes - see it all the time - never waves - tried a WIY on here before.
