I ended up removing those counterweights and fitting 17” wheels. When it was time to do rotors I went with RB. Very happy with their performance and significantly lower dust but they do squeal.

Perfect. I think I’m sold on this setup. Also did more research on RB with other MB setups and it seems like it’s a clear winner!

Oh nice, so you ended up fitting 17 inch wheels to the front and rear?? Damn, I didn't know this was possible...I wish I had thought of this. I always thought we'd struggle to fit them over the rear brakes, let alone the fronts.

FFS I wish I tried this now....

How does it drive? Are you running a shorter tyre height too?

Sorry, not over the front. Just drag radials over the rear.
