      Good question - I've heard nothing but bad reports about Quaife customer service and nothing but excellent stuff about Peloquin's. The Quaife is also no good if you lift a wheel off the ground; plus it's more expensive and doesn't come with the diff bolt kit

        the Peloquin diff sends drive to the wheel with the most traction no?

        as a friend of mine says "your here for a good time not a long time"

            They're 14s AP make very nice setups to suit 13" and 14" wheels. Some of the cheaper aftermarket brands are another option, but I haven't heard anything too positive about them Brakes certainly aren't something to skimp on

                    just checked them out on google, which colour inserts (centre piece) are you getting?? I've drooled over these wheels before, they'll look so hot...

                        I have Cupra brakes now; they don't fit under the 14s by a long shot and aren't really up to the task anyway. Wilwood are show brakes!! Brembo don't make a small enough four spot, which is a shame as they're a lot cheaper than AP It's all good, I'll run the APs - I'll just save for a bit longer

                            A 260mm rotor is what I'm looking at

                            P.S. Wheels have red centres, but that's going to change I think n:

                              I'm thinking charcol centres would look good., polished lip. or maybe a lighter grey centre, but I'm def thinking some sort of grey...
