You can go 381mm rotors, but you'll need a 19" spare.My opinion is that if you are going over 300rwkw you'll want 6 pots at the front, otherwise good 4 pots will probably suffice.Pic attached.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm just trying to justify the $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we can catch up in Sydney, and we can compare the calipers.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
