Pads for VWR 6 Pots

(1/3) > >>

Deako:
Can anyone advise which type of pad I need to order for the VWR 6 pot calipers?

Also, can anyone advise if it's possible to swap the brake lines around on these calipers to create an even pad wear? If I recall the pad wears uneven due to the larger piston biting first. This is present on the existing pads with a thinning effect to the first biting point.

I'd like to avoid this in future by flipping the calipers. I recall this from a thread a while back where VWR refused to acknowledge this was an issue. I think.  :grin:

Don't buy them. There are better alternatives. AP racing.  :happy2:

They were cheap. Already got them. By cheap you are talking £750 with the rear 2 piece discs.

Sounds like they have issues already. Your call.....

Deako:
Congrats on your purchase Luke. There are better options out there at the RRP, but as you paid a low price I think you got a good deal. Yes, people have identified issues with the smaller piston orientation. Just check your calipers and reverse if necessary.

The pads are an AP type shape of **** part number. Pads for these **** calipers will fit. There are numerous options available.

Probably a better reply.


Why is everyone else so quick to just piss on your bonfire?????
