Hi Guys, I have a '98 B5 1.8 20v n/a, which has standard 280mm front discs. I have seen a listing for an upgraded setup which has 288mm discs. (I know its not a fast model but would be nice to upgrade brakes for safety carrying family etc..)
Basically I need to know whether (firstly, should I bother?) secondly, if so in order to fit the 288mm discs will I need the front calipers to match, OR are they the same apart from the caliper bracket, lightly diferent to space the caliper further back for the extra few mm??
Thank you in advance for any advice.
Dave
Brake / caliper difference?
