Brake size.
Brake size.
Hi there, first time on the forum. Got my GTI in January and I’m looking to change the front brake rotors and pads. I was just wondering if anyone knew the size of rotor needed?

Re: Brake size.
no worries mate
remember to have a look at some new brake pads as well, when you fit new discs

Re: Brake size.
if you get the chance find some 256mm rear vented calipers
the braking is shocking in my gti think it's due to not enough braking on the rear axel

I’ve just ordered some Drilled Brembo discs and sport pads for the front. I think I will end up doing the rear sooner rather than later. New tyres first then rear brakes are on the cards!Dink wrote:if you get the chance find some 256mm rear vented calipers
