New BAER rear rotor now fitted, The internal diameter was larger on these rotors requiring the additional purchase of new lightweight hats, same 13" outer diameter. I now have the correct hats just got to do the other 3 Discs now smile

Heres a pic of the old rotor, as you can see the centre hat is smaller and there is a lot of unused disc!



Had the new rotors Zinc plated to make them stay shiny for a bit longer smile





Wheel cleaned up and now fitted with brand new michelin tyre graphics.



(Don't tell the missus I had the wheels in the Kitchen, luckily she was away and it was warmer cleaning the wheels in the house) biggrin

PS: Meet DODGE,


he is a Mastiff/South African Boerboel Cross breed, he's a rescue and is only 11 months old, he will be fully grown in another year! hes 43 kilos already!

If only I could get him to relax rolleyes
