The centres are cast simmons anf the rims are steel. Too much offset to be totally legal on the road unfortunately. they came with slicks hehe As for the brakes... Front Landcruiser 4 spots (i think) Mazda 929 vented discs Its a great set up but was expensive and is way too heavy IMHO Combined with a rear set up i have not totally identified it stops really well every time u apply the pedal The rear is Commodore front calipers Unknown vented disc (discs are stuffed so I'm trying to work out what they are} I haven't got any pics of this setup at the moment but i was considering doing a page on brakes anyway. I know theres a lot of interest in 4 spot brakes here and I really have formed some strong opinions about the issue Especially for young drivers and sr converted 1600"s!!! I am pusuing some alloy billet calipers but no firm details as yet I love the power of the 4 spots but i hate the feel of the unsprung weight flying all around the place.. enough of my ramblings cheers Mick PS when i first put the 4 spots on i had r31 rears. I outran a merc 450sel down thru cunningham gap towing my coach boat behind. Gotta be the best brake test available i think. haha pps if u gonna have big brakes u gotta have wheels that allow people to see 'em! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pooley, Trevor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, November 26, 2001 2:42 PM Subject: RE: some pics > Mick, > > What sort of wheels are they? > > Can you give us some detail of the brake setup you run?
