[c6mby]

hi

can anyone recommend a brake kit for my clio 172.its running the standard 15's and would really like an ap kit but there isnt one available.
ive spoken to a few people at track days above the willwood kits but they said they wernt realy upto the job.
the car is going to be driven hard on tracks so needs to stop well if possible

any help would be great

Well IIRC they fit under 15'' speedline 2118's, not sure about standard Renault wheels though.

Yes mate it is a small world, i've been living in Hiltingbury/valley park now for the last 3 years.

You need to try that car out on a track not just Poles Lane Fletcher...

Got a few slots free at FCS

On my old 172 I ran Brembo Max discs, Greenstuff pads, braided lines and willwood HT fluid.
At brands hatch I could brake much much later and deeper, in fact I was using the same braking points as the Megane 225 did with it's fancy setup

kool cant say ive seen your car around do you drive it as an everyday car?

no im not a trader, nothing will fit under the F1's on the ph1 172 as the wheels have such a large inner lip, a massive spacer would be needed i think.

Would be cheaper to buy some 15" speedline's and swap your tyres over
