What big brakes go under speedline ST2's
As the title really. I have a uk my 00 and find that the standard 4 pots really just dont cut it. So im after a big brake kit. Problem is i love my prodrive Speedline ST2's and under no circumstances will change them to fit new brakes.
So for all you people that also have them what big brake kits are you running.
Cheers guys

16s or 17s mate.
You will struggle to get big brake kits under 16s. APs 304mm 4pot kit will do it, as will the K-sport 304mm Kit AFAIK.
I'm having issues with trying to get the wheel weights on mine with the new kit though (16inch Speedline comp 2 wheels)
I'm increasingly of the opinion now that it's best to go to 17s then you can specify bigger discs too, which will further improve braking!

17 Inch mate sorry. Yeah i noticed that quite a few people are running ksports these days. Ive noticed quite a few sets of BREMBOS up for sale, are these a considerable upgrade over the 4pots. Cheers

I believe the the AP 4 pot kit 330mm kit will go under 17 inch speedlines ST2s quite comfortably mate. That will be MORE than adequate!
Confirm with a brake specialist though.

Brembo's are ace, even better with Performance Friction discs & pads. D1CCY and his pal use both and he reckons there is little difference, given adequate cooling.
