The ones on the XF were but not the ones im looking at thou atm. They were illegal as they do not have sufficent grip on the pedals or so they said.

I never had ne problems with them thou....

P.S. no ricer remarks either. Its not the chrome ones that add 100hp its the carbon fibre ones your thinking of lol. :P


LOL, point taken. The grip thing I can understand actually, wet shoes, slam on brakes, foot slips, accelerates instead... its a possibility. But im sure all the ones Ive seen have had that snad papery stuff.. kinda like the stuff you get one stairs and stuff...?

why dont you have a look at the genuine ones . i have a set of FPV ones on my GT-P they look great and have heaps of grip. and id like to see the cops tell you there illegal. shouldnt take much to make them fit. the only down side is the over $100 pricetag

Im thinking of buying Sports pedals for my XR6, and i was just wondering what people think about this idea?

Most likely i will be getting the momo or sparco ones (legal ones) which cost about $150 i think they look nice but its always good to hear some different opinions. :P

Cheers.

You like them get them put them over your pedal pads dont remove the rubber as they will slip

Some require complete replacement but most of them have brackets at the back of them which need to be bent and shaped into a certain spot to stay nice and firm. They also have a HD glue strip on them as well just to make it easier to put them on.
