Bit of news guys...

I went to Loon's on Monday (nothing like a big job on your first day back 'eh mate?

) and instead of replacing my wheel bearings that were shot we replaced the whole hub assembly from my 280's to the later model 288's. I don't feel much of a difference in stopping power (And the discs are a little funny/need extensive cleaning methinks) but I do know they clear without my spacers anymore

It doesn't look as good without phat wheels but meh it's neat. I'll be painting these badboys tomorrow hopefully:

These calipers clear my wheels by roughly.....1.5mm

Oh, and the valve caps rub against the calipers! Stupid Tempe Tyres not putting curved valves on the wheels...

Stickers arrived recently so I stuck them on too:

Hopefully I'll update with some pretty, shiny red calipers tomorrow.

Oh and props to Matt and Shannon (is that right?

) for giving me a hand with the hubs
