Need to sort out rears now maybe these? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PAIR-CAR-FRONT-BRAKE-CALIPER-COVERS-BREMBO-YELLOW-UK-/150631405962?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item231254d98a#ht_2217wt_905

Lol joking either black or am thinking of having the fronts re-done in green with white Lambo writing on

Dave

mmmm

Paint them Green.

They seem too big to me for the Octavia. What spacers do you need to use with the RS4 reps?

Lol too big my arse bigger is better lol.

You'd need at least 6 foot spacers to get the RS4's on lol

brakes look good, not keen on wheels though

Did consider that might try it. Can always paint back over them i guess

yes they are good but not on the octavia.

I have found putting spacers on ruins the drive and makes it naf to drive as a result putting bigger brakes on so you have no choice but put spacers on is not for me, not when there is a brake setup more than adequate and perfectly matched to the car that you can get OE wheels to go over them and keep everything as it was designed.

Have you tried some LCR rims?

you need to have bigger rears aswell, Yelloy could work but they are not carbon brakes are they so would be faulse advertising lol

I'm not running any spacers on these wheels thats why i chose them for once the brakes were on.

Not tried lcr no don't know anyone with one lol.

lol, whats the measurments of them mate?

Can you get 18" ones as they look like 19s?

:thumbup:

Go on!...be different, you know you wanna :thumbup:

Dave

just not a style i like, however i appreciate you need them for caliper clearance

I like to drive my car not look at it though lol.

It will be going lower once i'm happy the new lower arms etc are all ok

so do i! mine gets absolute hell and its low :thumbup:

What took you so long?

I'm also of a view that the 19s look too big I'm afraid,and 18s do go over the brakes

But each to their own :thumbup:

Like them a lot!!!!!! Very nice.

A lot of people said mine were overkill when I fitted AP Racing 6 pots with 335mm discs (now running 360mm) on mine nearly 6 years ago, but your brakes can never be too good!!!

Sort the rears with the CompBrake 330mm discs/brackets though as is does look daft!!

Not sure on the rims, but something different is never a bad thing!!!

:thumbup:

they are 19's yeah. 8.5x19

What is the pad surface area on those callipers and piston sizes?

The callipers are huge, but the pad area doesn't look as big as the calliper suggests?

Either way they look foookin awesome, they've really grown on me!!! Where did you get them from?

Steve :)

Looks good mate nice to see something different. Slightly lower would make it look even better but not to low that it messed the handling up. Well done
