Hi , just question from people that have upgraded their SS or SSV standard brakes to HSV brakes ….have you noticed improved performance in regards to less distance required to stop the vehicle?
I have assumed that they would but doing more research I’m finding conflicting info stating that the benefits are more for better performance in the way of continued braking and having less brake fade equaling better performance but not in the way of better stopping power or stopping the car quicker under normal street driving ? They go on to say the physics don’t allow bigger brakes to stop the car sooner which I feel sounds odd ?
Also people that are in the know with rims and offsets, would rims that clear the VE HSV brakes also clear the VF HSV 4 SPOT red callipers or do they need an different offset ?
Thanks in advance .
