Have been looking at these. Rimstyle are doing the discs and pads for the LCR at very competitive prices compaired to standard kit.

Wondering if anyone one here of them has any experience of running them on an LCR?

Looking at what mate? Cant see any discs on there site? The brake section on the site doesnt work for me. Do you need to be logged in?

I can pretty much bet that the discs they advertise as fitting the LCR are leon cupra discs and not brembo 323x28. They will be the 312mm discs.

So many companies do this its unreal

Phil (Empi5) and myself have both mailed them about the discs. I have specifically asked about the sizes and have just mailed again to double check.

It does seem that most places come back with the wrong sizes though.

Will post with their response.

I have spoken to Gary at Rimstyle again and the quote he gave Phil and myself was for the 312mm - as that's the largest disc Black Diamond have listed. :(

He is going to contact Black diamond to see if they could do the larger LCR disc - although I'l not sure about pads as the'll be larger also - but I assume the Brembo calliper on the LCR is a standard size?

They'll be 312mm only

@neil - technically they're "not wrong" - just misinformed for the UK market (EU and Mexico had Brembo's as a cost option)

Dawn from Ted Johnson Seat (in their forum on here) quoted me £202 inc VAT for a set. That didn't include postage though.

I think that the standard price is something like £220 plus VAT.

Bill (Badger5) also supplies them.
