Hi guys - lazy fecker here....(Rather than takin a couple of wheels off i thought i'd ask you knowledgable lot cos its dark outside!!)

Mines a completely standard setup on a 1999 mk4 turbo

Whats the standard size of the front and back discs?

I reckon its 288mm Vented on the front and 232mm Solid on the back. Is there a code on the sticker in the spare wheel well or service book that tells you which size is fitted ?

Cheers
Chris (Hennoir)
