Ceramics v rotors

Post by andyg72 » Sat Feb 10, 2018 3:54 pm

So today my good friend lent me one of his 8 Image genuine rotor wheels (muggy blue avant)
As mine has non genuine and he and his roofer mate (sprint blue rs4 )take the piss
Any way I have ceramics ( they don’t Image) and was told they won’t fit so today we took the lack of rain to see if this was the case .

‘‘Tis true they won’t fit as in the rotor arm touches the caliper

So there you go a school day if you didn’t already know ImageImageImageImageImageImage

I can confirm 3mm works a treat, bit snug but if it clears, it clears ;)
