When I went to a black pad in the rear with the smaller rotor it must match the original bias and amount of stopping force and the wiggle went away.

I just replaced the rears again and the fronts are still good, maybe half worn. If I trailered the car to the track I would put the same size Gyros all around and run the same pads on all corners.

This works fine for my track needs now.

So I have front set of Giro's need to replace the disc only, how many times can you swap disc from the hats before replacing the entire set (hat & rotors) I run PFC's 08 front and 01 rear - great balance and braking for the track little noisy on the street if you stop slowly Pm me $$ for front shipped to 33458 - thanks

I have several people who are on their 3rd ring set - the rotors last so long that the ultimate usage qty hasn't yet been seen by me :-) Check for hole concentricity (roundness)

Nothing, IMO...just makes you look like a poseur. AFAIK, no race application uses both

Craig----will these fit my 996T with the stock Brembo Calipers? These look similar to what I had on my ZO6...very nice.

They sure will - under stock 18" wheels. Quite an easy install, actually -
