The big advantage for these Alfa calipers is you can unbolt your M calipers and bolt these on. No mods required. Half the weight of M calipers Larger pad size that almost equals S calipers Uses a 914-6 or 911T rotor that’s available at flaps for $60 ish. Disadvantages- Higher cost to purchase Higher cost to restore Usually needs new pistons - PMB stocks them. And those are vented rotors I believe, right? (Good morning btw) Good morning Yes, vented. These are for the guys using 911T/914-6 struts. Eric explains it on his PMB site. |

i am running those exact alfa brembos on my 914-6 front struts Like them? Good pedal feel? i do, i think they feel great. got them from PMB when i did my 5-lug conversion. i have them paired with stock rears and a 19mm mc. speaking of which i need to send my rears to PMB this winter, they're past due for a rebuild. |
