there is no way the pad can touch the whole disk. the distance between the edge of the disk and the caliper is minimum so i can't push it further "in" the caliper.
i still have some fitment adjustments to do, because the caliper is not really centered on the disk. it first touches the interior and then the exterior. minor thing. i will do it when i get back home to romania, since i am currently living in france until july.
anyway the difference is amazing.

So today i managed too get tyres on the front two wheels. I'm going to have to buy 205's now for the rears as we couldnt get the 195's to stretch!

Hopefully should have tyres on the rear wheels by tuesday! Here is some pictures with the 8's on..
