No I've had ABS on several other cars but they didnt produce this same grinding through the pedal when you brake hard... I'm still not convinced it is normal! But I guess if you guys say it is and get the same thing then it must be! Cheers

I've just stuck four on my Ep3 and they're great. As for the uneven wear have you had a FRSU done?I had the same problem with mine when I first bought it but one visit to TGM with a fist full of notes and all was well and even again.

It might just be a bit of surface rust on the discs. Has it been stood for a while? had the problem when I bought mine, then it just went away after a few days

No low profile wide tyre is going to be any use on snow/ice, skinny high profile tyres are better.

i went from the pots to the f1's and there a much better tyre overall, found handling in both the wet and the dry improved massively, especially in the wet. also the road noise reduced alot and comfort improved even though they were a lower profile.

Its the ABS coming in mate.
It will feel like a grinding sensation through the middle pedal.
Perfectly normal.

Have a look on Ebay for 3G discs, they do drilled and pitted discs which I had on mine for 12 months and never had any issues with, very good under breaking and never had any squeel etc

Would this just need tightening up or has something snapped/broke?
Best to whip the wheel off and have a look, no way we can ...

Yes it works (if it says Honda in the listing), be careful not to bend the handle though.
