Well got my front brakes  and discs in the week between Christmas and New Year
These are fully working brakes, made for my car. Hispec in Dartford
And today I fitted them, so just a little update
Not cheap, and I know they are not in the original Ferrari position, but that is because my track rods are in the way

After changing my front tyres to a wider profile they are now rubbing on the inner wheel arch/footwells on both sides
So angle grinder in hand , I have made some drastic alterations
Then after went to get the metal, only to find I didn't have any  ???
Off to the panel shop tomorrow then

What size are your wider profiles?

Got a feeling JD needed to do a whole lot of chopping for mine. lol

Hi Tone
I originally had 225/35 19's on, but these needed to be stretched onto the wheels. Didn't look good and no protection for the wheel rims
So I changed the tyres to 245/35 19's. But now, when on full lock, the outer part of the tyres rub on the foot wells.
I have cut more out since the photo was taken, just need to weld in some metal, paint and protect and job done ( fingers crossed haha )
Then onto the other side.

that makes sense.

Nothing worse than scuffed wheels, especially on a nice shiny show car.

That is a cracking photo. What a beautiful looking dog
They love the snow. Molly was out laying down with her nose buried
She was there a good 20 minutes.

Have you ever run him
Emma ( the Missus ) runs Molly
We go to Aviemore for the sled dog racing
This is them a few years ago
Molly in the front, Mush ( who sadly passed away last year ), and Emma steering
This picture was used in the news
