Seriously thinking about these as they will bolt straight on :)

With spacers.....;)

Its the reason i changed my alloys on mine Stu, i had a similar design to you, and had to change the moment i decided i wanted big stoppers.
Its the only problem with that design alloys, looks lovely to look at but crap for bigger brakes...

i fitted these brakes today, and they are 326mm, and look very very well built, the calipers fitted over my s3 wheels fine, with a good amount of clearance from the wheel, they didnt fit over the bbs lm's that i had on the car so i have to get a 15mm spacer to fit them, cant comment on how good they brake as i have to wear the pads and discs in, so have to take it easy for a day or two, will let you know how they work

"Come with a free pair of oven gloves"

Hot to handle goods.... lol

But to be honest, I rather pay for those, as most likely ATE makes that kit for around that price to themselves, then put on there profit to £1400 for retail, that kit is most likely cost price to make. Only idea i can come up with...

I had these brakes fitted to my old Cosworth...they cost me around £850 all in, that included the calipers, proper braided hoses, bells, rotors and some road pads.

The calipers are made by Brembo and are standard fit on some porsche models...the kit is put together by compbrake and is excellent quality!! the discs are 335mm x 32mm.
