the only problem on saxos is the way that the brake hose leaves the caliper, if its not set at the right angle it will rub on the wheel.

make sure you have the smaller hoses. 14.5 irc, not the 17.5 the longer hoses are the ones that rub through easyer due to the excess length being near the wheel.

what some people have done is make their own hose/banjo connectors at the rear of the caliper so that the hose comes out at a better angle which isnt pointing directly at the wheel.

mine are normal still and have about 1/2mm of clearance.

I had the same problem with the hose when i fitted mine, i had to beind the hose away from the wheel and since then its been perfect.
Ever since i have had these fitted, never had any brake fade and when you press the pedal hard it does scare you how quickly it can stop.
Would recommend some top strut strenghtening plates as they can take their toll on the strut.

sorry pics here, when i had my crappy vts alloys
