FAO Alyn AS Performance
Hi Alyn,
Fitted those pads to my D2 8 Pot breaks and as you can see there is too much meat on the pad for the breaks.
The pads were tight on the disk could only just move it, Drove it to garage 500 meters away and they were steaming, In garage now they are going to check it out for me.
Are they supposed to be that tight
Cant put a pic on as it states i cant post attachments
Regards
Dex

Hi Alyn,
Just for future note, Garage shaved 1mm of the front pads and now its fine
was a real tight fit, so tight that i couldnt touch brakes as all and the smoke coming off them was amazing, Love the smell of brake dust, reminds me of track days.

Hi Alyn,
Its ok mate was more of a heads up,
Like I said just took it to my local garage to check I had fitted correctly, He said yes but the pad has more meat on than is needed, Shaved 1mm off each pad and hey presto the brakes are great again.
They are every bit as good as the Ferodo pads that were on
