Godspeedbrakes for the refurb, pilot sport 4 or Eagle F1 for tyres, black circles tends to be cheapest

I've not used the PS4's, or the PS4S's but would definitely suggest the Eagle F1 Asym 5 as a good option. Good turn in, sharp feeling and good grip in the wet/cool/damp/warm/hot mix you get in the north of Scotland. I haven't settled on tyre pressures yet but they're impressive and a massive step up from the AS2's I last had on the car (albeit in 18" rather than 17"). Best bit was they were £220 for 4, delivered from Black Circles!

Hi
We can help you with the caliper reconditioning , all calipers we do are stripped , paint stripped and bead blasted , powder coated any colour you want , and built up with stainless steel pistons , new seals , bleed nipples and logos , we charge £430 for all 4 calipers , we can either do yours , or offer you GB270 calipers on an exchange basis with a refundable deposit.

Here is a selection of calipers we have done as examples
