some insurance companies say rear discs only over 200 brake. | |

when you fit rear disc's you usually have to use a bias valve, and set it up to put more pressure on the front, which defeats the object of having rear disc's.... | |

1) Doesnt realli make the braking better, only does 10% of it anyway, the corsa is so light it doesnt need rear disks. Makes the backend twitchy (read dangerous) as fuck. | |
