    Guy_H posts about it here.

    The Alcon's are better value than the Brembo's. Whilst their 2 piece kit is a bit more than Brembo's 1 piece kit, Brembo's two piece kit is over $4k....

    The best thing about the combination of those OZ Racing Rims weighing only 8.5kg, is the combination with them and the Alcon's saving you HEAPS of unsprung rotational weight (the worst type of car weight). Each brake saves 8kg alone. I wonder what the weight of the stock Polo GTI Rim is?

    It can look really cool, but not those ones on the H&R Polo, and would be a bastard to keep clean.
