What do I need to do the upgrade to 305mm from my 286mm brakes on my S60 D5?
My pads are nearing the end of their useful life and my discs won't be far behind them, so might as well get them done together.
If it's not stupidly expensive, what else, aside from pads & discs do I need if I wish to do the upgrade?
I'm quite happy with the 286mm brakes at the mo, but with a pending upgrade from the boys at VT I might be glad of the 305's sometime very soon
