bigdave982 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Hi all,implanning to change my discs and pads all round I have 16" wheels on a 2001 tdi 115bhp,and have measured the fronts (thru the wheel with a large engineers caliper )at 288mmfound an ebay seller offer a complete set of mintex for Quote
nickcockman Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Not a guru, but ... :) I recently put new these 300mm mintex front discs/pads on my 2003 115 tdi (16 inch wheels) all in for Quote
Bigjeeze Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 I would not buy the 300mm discs. My 2001/2 115bhp Galaxy has 16" wheels but the 288mm discs. I think you will have problems with the disc fitting into the caliper. Quote
sparky Paul Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 As above, if you car is fitted with 288mm discs, you need 288mm replacement discs. The 300mm discs will not fit. Many catalogues state that 300mm discs are fitted with 16" wheels, this is totally incorrect. Later mk.II cars were all fitted with 300mm discs, but the early mk.IIs can be either. Quote
