It really depends on what clearance you have to the arches and suspension I guess. Have a feel and see if there is enough gap for another 5mm per side.

Oh and look what turned up today 8)

I just need the dam car back to put them on :roll:

I think I am quite capable of scrubbing in my own tyres thank you very much Mr Staples :lol:

Mind you..........I think I need a working car for that

I couldn't resist the lure of the K-Sport 8-pots and 356mm bells and rotors any longer, they are HUGE 8)

I have hidden the box at work for the last week, but I couldn't resist taking a quick picture today

Very interested to see how you get on with these. I was discussing them at some length with SM at the show and they seem to offer superb value for money.

I am notoriously hard on brakes and have certainly got through some discs and pads over the last three years. I am always concious of trying not to overheat the brakes, but I think that the 356mm rotors should dissipate the heat more readily. The brake kit is a bit of a steal @

That does sound like a bargin especially if you compare it against the price of an exhaust or induction.
