Hey guys

Especially if you like black front wheels.

You will be fine to just do the fronts.
People are raving about the Performance Friction brakes at the mo, and there are some good deals to be had.
Check the trader announcements page.

I'm using Pagids too in my 2003 WRX. If you ring Alyn and tell him what you use the car for, track, road, etc he'll give you options and prices. You decide from there. He won't say you must buy brand X just cos he'll make more profit.
