Post by: Dolly on 10 February 2008, 16:46

well ats cups did'nt fit over my 280mm brakes, specifically the wheel weights on the inside edge so i relocated them to the outside edge, also need to fit a 3mm spacer however its still so so close that when i fit new disks and pads i will prob need a 5mm spacer. also on a lowered car this puts the tyre closer to the arch. ronnal's are a similar to cups in fitment i would imagine. 280mm brake calipers are bigger than you think. mabye this will help you mabye it wont.

all advice is appreciated dude.. my seat ibiza 16v has the 280mm and ive got 15" corselines, its close but they fit.. i assumed with ronals being popular on golfs and the 280mm brakes being a popular upgrade someones bound to know

That was my Bright Blue Metallic G60 with Ronal Turbos on it so they will definitely fit over G60 brakes...
