Default AP 362mm

Hi is anyone running the AP racing 362mm brake kit with Prodrive PFF7 rims ?
Do they fit or do i have to go for the 355mm kit ?

Many thanks
James

Sweet that is one lovely looking car. Was it a straight bolt on kit or was there hassle involved with spacers etc?

Download the template off the AP website. Cut it out and try it inside the wheel. If the template fits in the wheel then the wheel will fit over the brakes.

I have the 362mm discs under 18" PFF7's but with different calipers, the CP5555 calipers. These fit, tight but they do fit, without spacers or bodges or anything like that.

You'll not notice the 7mm difference. The 355 kit is the same price and is equally as good. Unsprung weight is a tad lighter too. No need to **** about with stuck on weights etc.

Cheers guys looks like its the 355 kit. The 362 is probally overkill for the road anyway
So where is the best (cheapest) place to buy from ? ?

You'll probably find they are about the same no matter where you go.

RCMS will have them in stock.

I make up my own kits using the AP 6 pot calipers , I can supply you a kit with our own 355mm grooved discs and bells , AP 7040 calipers , Ferodo DS2500 pads , alloys brackets ect for £1300.
Our discs come with a 12 month guarantee against warping even if you do track days.

Cheers Ian
