I am sure there was a tread alredy about this but can't find it. : did anybody use alternative brake discs and is it possible to install a bigger size discs, as I need to replace them anyway might be a good chance to upgrade..

Speak to Brummmie; 330mm one piece discs with the necessary distance plate for the AP CP6600 Calipers.

The alternative are 330mm brake rotors on an alloy bell. But these are more expensive.

i had the bigger brakes with the alloy bell on my Tuscan. When i replaced them, i decided to just fit the (bigger than standard) S discs as i was unable to find replacement discs to fit the bell. I don't notice any difference.

I was the opposite, thought there was a big weight difference when i swapped to bells

Going teh same route here : was just looking for bigger discs for cosmetic reasons, stopping power of the S discs is good enough but weight reduction in that area is a good upgrade when replacing anyway.
