Size Discs??
« on: 11 January 2008, 00:06 »
What size discs would you need to fit on the normal R32 calipers. I just want to change the discs thou, nothing else...was looking at these.

Not sure if they make a difference but i think they would really look nice :)

I believe that the Ed30 rotors are 328mm and the R32's are bigger. So the ones listed at 286 would basically be a downgrade.

I think they are 345mm on the front, not sure about the back though.

ED30's are 312mm and R32's 345mm which makes the R32 brake upgrade worthwhile, so if you decide not to bother TO88M I'm sure we could agree a price for that set up you have tucked away.
