Having just upgraded to 4-pots I have a set of 2-pots and 15" wheels for sale.

The Pads have a bit of life in them but the disks will need replacing soon. The performance of these in comparison to 4-pots isn't too inferior so I suspect they've got decent pads and disks. They were on the car when I imported it from Japan.

The wheels are standard Subaru 15" with a few scuffs and scrapes. Tyres are made by Millenium (!) and have a bit of tread left on them.

Anybody interested?

Make me an offer!

Mark

What a great idea!

So.....

We've got a group sell of 2-pots! How about 15" wheels to go with them?

Then, in effect, we've got a ready made package to downgrade the brakes on the scooby!!

I like that idea! Bound to be popular!!

I've got a set of 2 pots and some 16" wheels that don't go over 4 pots so that's 2 cars that can be downgraded !!

I've got a set of 2 pots, EBC turbo Groove disks, greenstuf pads and a full set of 15" silver alloys

Roll up, roll up, get your downgrade kit here, this is going to be a massive summer trend, so get in early and reserve your set.

Speak to Mark first as it is his thread

Yeah, If there is a sudden demand Ive got a old set of 2 pots of a 94, and a nice set of disks... gave my set of 15"'s away though...

Cant someone design a rear brake conversion for our cars with em? Or would that be worse?

What about a nice break conversion for micra's... come on godspeed... Could buy the calipers from us at 100pound a pair??

Group buy could drop to 99.

It might be worth advertising your 15" wheels in your local Auto Trader - free of charge to advertise up to £200.

I flogged mine for £140 to a chap who wanted them to fit on his Mazda 626?! - he thought they were an absolute bargain

Cheers,

Ian.

Thanks Ian,

That's a good idea...

Do you think 2-pots will fit on a 626?

Got some 15" wheels for those people getting 2 pots & wanting to swap from 17" to 15".

Just think smaller contact area, much easier to get the back out & cheaper tyres.

Bargain !

If we make enough noise, bound to catch on.
Like "whaah best thing I ever did swapping to 2 pots & 15" wheels"

voted "Best budget downgrade 2001" by Max Stopping Power

Come on any better ones ?

"Improve your handling - fit the amateurdrive 15" handling kit"

Or,

"Eliminate oversteer, fit the amateurdrive 2-pot upgrade and you'll be too scared to drive fast enough to get oversteer"
