They do look good. The tolerances on the caliper may invite the occasional stone which will score the inner circumference of your wheel. Makes a right mess of the caliper paint too. Had it on two of my cars with PCCB and tolerances look similar.
Yep sorry to say this will score your wheel barrels :-( and still not a fan of the gyro effect on the added weight.PCCB have way more tolerance than this looks like.
350mm for the win imo and bad advice from the race shop on two accounts.
Really doesn’t make these cars look the part, at least I know I’ll be able to out brake everyone else

You maybe right but I guess only time will tell, happy to be a guinea pig on this as the other options were simply too small, I can’t stand being able to see the rear parts of the suspension because the rear disc is so small!

Only if you're on slicks in the dry though Really doesn’t make these cars look the part, at least I know I’ll be able to out brake everyone else

Just get one of these. They are brilliant and best of all you don't have to hold them and they are windproof. I went for the blue.

They should be fine, though I suspect you may find you need to get bigger discs on the back, as both the disc diameter and pad size has jumped massively on the front, and the front to rear bias will somewhat different now !!Really doesn’t make these cars look the part, at least I know I’ll be able to out brake everyone else

Yep rears are on route! Just gotta find some time to fit, benefit is with trying bigger first is it’s easy to machine the backer to make small next time round
Good to hear How big are the new rear discs ? Will they utilise the stock calipers or are you going upgraded AP's on the back too ?

Be interesting to see as I was thinking 380/370 fronts and 360/350 rear to start with but it’s fairly easy to reduce if needed

If you're interested @Julian987R, I have the original umbrella with case which was supplied with my Cayman R when I bought it new. You don't accept DM so if you're interested, DM me otherwise I'm going to pop it on to eBay.
Hiya!Amazing! I have sent you a DM. Superstar.
Best regards

Hey Julian I dropped you an email to your Gmail address. I may have gone into your spam folder so just checking you had received it. Happy to have a chat on price if you want to make me an offer too.
Hiya! many thanks. Ah yes I just noticed in the spam folder, most odd. Great! thank you. I'll reply back over email either later tonight or tomorrow morning. Best regards
Julian

Has any other R owners coming from an S experienced understeer at times related to the LSD?
I'm doubtful (I certainly didn't) as the standard fit LSD will be all but ineffectual once the car has been subjected to the factory's end of production line shakedown on the rolling road ... https://www.planet-9.com/threads/the-cayman-factor...
So whilst on the face of it the factory (for which read the tossers in the marketing dept)
made much of the fact the Cayman finally had a "911 equalling LSD", what they fitted was actually about as much use as chocolate tea pot

Best make sure your headlamps are properly clipped in then
