Ok, so I just got my SEAT calipers. They actually doo look rather good in real life. The hunk of metal that they call bracket was rather impressing too - it will stand up to a little machining for sure! So now it comes down to discs. The question is - how big discs should I go for? I'd really really like to fit these calipers and use them with my 16" Avus - will that limit me to 314mm discs? I was actually planning on getting a 320mm 2-piece rotor (as I got one for free just the other week!) but if I don't find another one then I'll just buy a set of solids. Now, this thought leeds me to lean towards 314mm beacuse then I can just make a distance to space out the caliper when the time comes to go 320mm. The 314mm are almost 40mm larger in diameter than stock - but then again the 323mm are almost 50mm larger. Since these are 2-piece calipers I'll probably won't be able to use 323mm and fit them, so I'd have to machine them down - will I be able to fit a 320mm and these calipers? Any good way of finding out without having to buy one 314mm and one 323mm disc?
And also - Red Dot discs? Are they any good or? They are grooved and pretty decently priced. What pads? Ferodo DS200 is the plan but what do I know??
