small detour if thats alright.. mine has a similar thing.. but the discs are solid.. i dont have any choice but solid discs again do i.. unless i replace the calipers coz the vented ones are wider, correct?

yep solids are like 10-12mm and vented are 22 so most likely new calipers but not sure they would bolt straight up, might need a spacer? have to ask someone whos done it.

If you are in an accident and your car gets checked over and the discs are under size it will void the MOT and insurance etc and you could be looking at bird :sick:
