Has anyone tried fitting the PB Brakes big brake kit on their f-type? I've seen on XF posts on this, but search turned up nothing on the ftype. I like that you can get both the front and rear sets and they are not insanely expensive. I'm looking to remove the carbon ceramics (cost and noise) and these seem like the only option that have both fronts and rears in various size options. Curious how they perform and if they're reliable.

They look very nice! What configuration did you go with and how do you like them? Do they see any track time? What pads are you running? Any issues installing (i.e. electronic parking brake)?

 

I've been running PB Brakes front and rear on my XJ for a year and a half so far. Excellent value. My initial thread is floating around the X351 section somewhere.

 

I went for the 380 fixed rotors with there standard pads. The fronts were easy to fit , on the rears I had to trim a little bit off the stone guard
and make sure the EPB is in service mode. Dan Newton there sales director will answer any questions. I haven’t had any issues so far i don’t track
the car.

 

Did you start with the carbon ceramics or steels? The carbon ceramics are very large so was hoping I won't have to do any trimming when going to steels of the same (or smaller) size.

 

I had the steels before, as you have already bigger rear callipers you won’t have any trimming to do.

 

what is your wheel and tire setup? are those vorsteiner wheels?

From the photos it looks like:

Tires: Michelin Pilot Sport 4s 265 front 305 rear Wheels: Vorsteiner V-FF 103 21"

 

The suspension knuckles on carbon ceramic SVRs are different than SVRs with the stainless steel brakes. The mounting points for the calipers are different. Not sure if PB has SVR specific caliper kit.
