Anyone got these? The performance versions (particularly the CP9560)

https://apracing.com/performance-upgrades/performa...

Thinking of upgrading the brakes on my v8 vantage which has the 4pot front calipers. It’s a “cheaper” option than the OE 6 pot brembo and I believe they are a “better” caliper but that’s a grey line.

Anyone using them?
Looked at the more race version too but this is more a road car than a track car just looking at upgrading the calipers as need new discs and pads anyway.

Thanks

Thanks. In the end the weight and lack of many reviews etc put me off buying these. I have upgraded instead to the brembo 6 pots from the Aston Vantage V8S and have gone for 2 piece Jhook discs.

The Radical calipers just seemed too heavy to warrant.

completely agree. The two piece discs should help with rotational weight and are the same ones Id have got if I opted for the Ap radicals.

There was also just a niggle about going "non OEM" on the aston. Great to see it done on a ferrari! Maybe next time!
