You did a good job with the offsets I find it impossible to take good pictures of black wheels. Pictures never do em justice.

(minus powder costs)I have a different choice in pads im looking into so really just need caliper cost and the rest I can work out.. cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86007-what-upgrade-brakes-on-g6e-lux-rims/page/10/#findComment-1480888 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was really impressed with how much better again they feel.The pedal has lost that spongy feel from factory, you now feel a lot more control though the pedal.Stopping power now comes on smooth unlike the factory set up, providing you with a heap more confidence.The main reason I went this way was I could still run 19" factory rims still and very happy with the end result.

Rotors f*#ked and the pads gone nothing left.So today I changed them to DBA 4000 T3 with SRT pads hoping this time they will last longer than 11 months. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86007-what-upgrade-brakes-on-g6e-lux-rims/page/10/#findComment-1484376 Share on other sites More sharing options...

T2's are good just not as hard as the T3's.
