Then I'd do a set of rims and good track tires I also run Apex 18" and Nittos.
There's a decent amount of your front rotor face not being used. ST, or other pad manufacturers, doesn't offer a pad with a larger radial depth for the ST60 caliper so all of the rotor is used? Using all of the rotor face with a larger pad will decrease pad wear, increase the area to transfer kinetic energy to thermal energy, and decrease rotor temps. I'm just surprised to see this much of the rotor not being used - why does ST offer such a large rotor ring if they had no plans to offer a pad to use the increased rotor radial depth?
