mikew 0 Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 As my car is currently sorn im taking this opportunity to go through the car and do a few things id been putting off. So i get to the front brakes and notice that the pads look to big and has an area along the bottom about 5mm wide that doesnt touch the disk. The car is a 1996 highline, so should have the 288mm set up, correct? but the disks are 280mm. are the calipers noticeably different between the two disk sizes? how can i tell which i have? Is it even possible to have mongrel brakes like this or am i being mental and missing something blindingly obvious?Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
editionmatt 1 Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 I thought the 288's didnt have full contact with the disk either, it wasnt until i upgraded to the 312's that it had full contact. Link to post Share on other sites
