"If you have a $5 head buy a $5 helmet"
Don't risk running worn out breaks fro the "cool" factor. I'd rather run old iron discs and live to get ripped into for it, then run worn out ceramics and have people talk about how cool my car looked at my funeral.... Alex

Hey Alex,
The remark about the cool factor is really below the belt! The whole point of this for me is to save upsprung weight. The difference in disk color nobody will notice anyways. My current disk weighs 8,2 kilo These are 3 kilo each lighter...That is HUGE! |

Sorry Wally, I didn't mean it as an attack at you.
I can totally understand why you'd want to use them, i mean they do have many advantages over steel discs heat dissapation, weight etc (other then the cool factor! ) All I'm saying is if they can't be used safely, don't use them at all. Tread unknown waters with caution. Best of luck! Alex
