credless Posted January 29, 2011 Report Posted January 29, 2011 Hi All, Ordered Mintex front discs and pads for my Galaxy Mk2 TDI 90 - confident that I measured a diameter of 300mm on the originals. When swaping out today discovered they are the 288mm diameter !! <_< . Before I exchange, was wondering has anyone upgraded to the larger discs?? Do you only have to exchage the caliper mounting bracket or is a whole new caliper assy required. Car is fitted with 195/65/15 standard tyres. The old advise - " measure twice cut once " applies Thanks !! Quote
Goofygolfer Posted January 29, 2011 Report Posted January 29, 2011 not sure about the brackets, but i know you will need larger callipers and at least 16" wheels to clear the larger callipers. Quote
credless Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Posted January 29, 2011 Thanks for the info Goofygolfer.. will stick to the 288mm then Quote
