I Updated My Wheels To 17'' From 15'', I'M Feeling That My Brakes Are Not As Efficient As Before

If the wheels and tyres are uni-directional I would swap the 2 front, thereby reversing each one, and see if the situation remains the same. There has to be a reason the braking efficiency diminished. Try one thing at a time and you will end up with the solution!

There is, the rotors are glazed and the pads to hard..

NOT suddenly via a new wheel set up. The bad brakes would have been felt before the wheel change.

Maybe maybe not, besides who says it wasn't there already and nothing to compare it to? I've driven other competitors race cars when they thought it was perfectly set up and it turned out to be junk to an experienced professional and the same goes for brakes. Likewise have had others drive my cars and come out saying Jaysus! What a difference! Like it's on rails! With the track times to prove it..

Additionally now he has up-rated everything and it magnifies his problem which may have been less noticeable before.. Anyway wish I could have seen them before as he's not likely to get anyone who can give him a proper evaluation..Unless they end up agreeing with my diagnosis of course biggrin.png ...

Warpy, i tried some time ago to PM you, and recently, it seems you are not accepting PMs on your profile, is this how you have set it? Cheers, Lickey..
