Brembo Gran Turismo Brake System

My Vantage V8 is in for service and the dealership discovered that my rear rotors need to be replaced. I was wondering is anyone here has replaced theirs with the Brembo Gran Turismo Brake System replacement rear disks.

The dealership is telling me...
I have someone reviewing and making sure we can install upgrades and review items of upgrade to be sure that they really have value too you and check on history of product..- The enhancement and upgrade that are not factory have to be approved and signed off by service director & Aston Tech performing upgrade.
I appreciate them looking out for me, but I'm hoping I can get some feedback from actual users in case they are more interested in margins.

On that note. Can anyone recommend a good shop in Northern California? Preferably north of SF in the wine country. I get the distinct impression from my dealership that they will only install a handfull of approved mods to my car. Probably nothing that would make it quicker than the stock 4.7L Vantage.

Thanks,
J Dehnert

Send me an email - Stuart@RSCTuning.com or call me on 786-325-7529. I know this product very well and would be happy to talk to your AM dealer. If you are running 19" wheels you are probably going to need a set of wheel spacers.

It is a very nice kit, I was very impressed with the feel on the DB9.

I'll try and give you a call Wednesday (8/17). The dealer suggested that I buy these and drop ship them. These will fit under the stock rims, correct? Being OEM replacement parts I am assuming so, but I'm checking before I'm buying.

I will be in the air until about 3:30 PST - on the way to California to tune an XF-R actually!!! The Brembo kit MAY fit under stock 19's but we haven't ever confirmed this. We do offer spacers which should offer enough clearance if it is an issue, but call me and I will talk you through it.

Rear rotors are direct swap and require no modification whatsoever, fronts not so sure
