Hi dutchie,
The wheels look good, could you ask your expert if there is a standard part number for the brake pads from Isuzu? A fellow Lotus owner bought some pads from a specialist firm EBC which significantly reduced the amount of brake dust. If I had an Isuzu part number I may be able to get a cross reference or something to see if a different material is available. A second question I have is about wheel bearings does he know if there is any difference in the wheel bearings of the U.S. spec vehicle and the imported model I have in the U.K.? Hope you can help as I am about to undertake a wheel bearing check/replacement soon.
Best regards
David Wiltshire
