6 Pots?!

TRY THIS......

I just opted for the 330mm rear disc and modified OEM calliper.... I did this more for show as I hate seeing big wheels with tiny p!ss poor brakes inside them!

In addition, very little braking force actually goes to the rears....

you say that not a lot goes to the rear but I went over the old severn bridge the other day and came off to go toward severn beach and seen as no one was around I went from 70 :smirk: to 0 just to see what the brembos were about and OMG they were good. On way back from a delivery that night too I noticed I had left some rubber there too even tho it didnt lock up. but I then went all the way to the industrial park were Tesco is and only used the brakes once very lightly to stop and park and the rears where still extreamly hot. but the brembos were pritty cool. the discs werent mind.

Wont them 4 pot rears make this pedal travel even wors too? specially if you have big front brakes on too?

I know what you mean about the big wheels and small brakes, doesnt look too bad with the spiders but the TDs are worse being 18" and thinner spokes so you can see in more.

BY default 30% of the braking goes to the rear!

And if the car is lower and or leveler! than stock the brake bias will be adjusted so minght even be a bit more, or could be less depending on how your car is set up.

Ive run stock pads on the Porka 4 pots ive got and when ive come back from driving sensible and within the law!!!! ive had the backs soo hot the disc has gone blue!!

But now im running DS1.11 up front i dont spend as long or as much force on the brakes to get them to stop and this has solved the issue.

But yourll be supprised how much you do use and need the rear brakes!
