I'm after a set of those four pots for vented discs that has the spacer in the midddle. BIR was fitted with one of those, but I need another. This way I could bin the horrible vented discs, but still have some pad surface area.

Anyone?

You want to use solid discs with 4-pots ?

I believe early metros had this setup ?

lol ok i see.

Must admit i have used non vented before and for road use they are great stay warmer so you get a better bite where as the vented go off cold and little less consistant but will take more abuse on a track or where braking is more offen.

Guess what i've just found in the garage ? *happy*
I used to have them fitted to my car and they were fine {changed them for Minispares alloy 4pots} since then they've just been sat in the garage, so as far as i know they should still be ok....
They're quite heavy as you know, so £30 inc UK postage ??

Phil. You're a star.
I'll definately have them if they're the three piece variety.

They're 2 piece, but they're for solid discs, not vented. *smiley*

Of course. I guess they're missing the centre piece then :)
