It's a smashing re-build in every way...I think we've been quite rude.. Sorry.

Apologies also for hijack.
I personally wouldn't use those A2-70 bolts Darren. I tried A2-70 button heads on my discs, but chewed the heads out before I reached 25nm.
I asked the supplier if I had chosen the wrong bolts for the job.
They said this;

In the end I used high tensile steel 10.9 BZP button heads.
With a light polish they look like s/s.

Thanks for the heads up on this. Its worrying that the seller has specifically stated that these are a direct replacment for OEM if the OEM are 8.8 carbon steel. I was looking to upgrade to titanium when I do my brake upgrades so if I went for titanium what grade would I need? Would these be more suitable?
