erm drum brakes are not going to be good on one of these cars! stick with the disks

I'm sure they'd go on... but as said, why??

Drums will be more than adequate on the rear surely? They manage to stop a considerably heavier car after all.

was gonna upgrade at a later date to discs was wondering if the hub supplied is any different for the to???

you are proberly more likly to spend more cash on fitting the drums, then fitting all the other stuff for disks later. The veinto is a high performace car, so the disks will be a lot better when you thrash it!

Don't get stuck on the idea that discs are needed. I have discs on the rear but drums would be more than up to the task. I sometimes wish I had gone for drums then I could fit 13" wheels!

It's not till the car is built that you find out what you really should have done rather than what you thought was needed.
