Yeah they look a bit odd to me.

They could be 7.9" discs I guess. But as stated earlier, I've never seen a cast 4 pot that went under tens :S.

If you did the back first, you wouldn't have it to dread hehe. I think the rear end is much more difficult than the front, but maybe it's just me.

Nah, it's not like they can really turn around and say no because it's not what you asked for.

I would've done but I didn't see that Mini Spares had a stand there.. due to the carefully positioned banner along the front of the stall, right where everyones legs were.. :D

I tried Mini Sport and they'd sold out.

And I couldn't pick a LH rear hub nut up anywhere! one stall just had bags and bags of RH nuts.

I do ;) nice little touch!

thanks to Roofless...

I bought some red pedal rubbers and a clutch m/cylinder from minispares as you said their banner was in a
silly place...
