More surface area to grip.<BR>Also harsher than puck-type single disc setups, which are usually regarded as track only for most. Not good for the tranny or rush hour traffic.<BR> <A HREF="http://www.mazdamotorsports.com" TARGET=_blank>www.mazdamotorsports.com</A> has some tilton twin plate sets for our cars I believe, If you're interested Image<P>------------------<BR>David Coleman- <B><I>Moderator</B></I><BR><A HREF="http://www.PinkMX-3.com" TARGET=_blank>1993 Mazda MX-3 GS Special Edition</A><BR><B><I>Why get clear tail lights when only Geo Metros are gonna see them?</I></B>
