legvw 0 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 You may find you need a spacer between the carrier and the hub, i did when i installed mine. I think it was 6mm.Very good brakes on a mk3, but the discs and pads are quite expensive, but then they are huge!! Link to post Share on other sites

finny 0 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 When one of my rear brake calipers seized, went for Mk4 calipers, just need new hoses to fit, but went whole hog changing discs, bearings etc.Believe there are large rear discs conversions but don't think its necessary unless for looks?

wag 0 Posted January 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 what discs do u use for the large conversions? i have some vented anni golf ones sitting around but as the mk3 has inbuilt bearings couldnt think of what to use Link to post Share on other sites
legvw 0 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 no they fit under 17's or at least some 17's Yes they do, i was running 17" santa monicas, and now i've got 17" tt ronal alloys, both fit over the brakes. I think its some after market wheels you have to be careful with. Link to post Share on other sites
