hmmmm, looks like i'm going to have to take the wheel off and get wet :(

[Adam]

Why?
They are 256mm

[chimp007_uk]

100% ? i think i will check, that is what i was told when i bought the car, and the nova gte alloys don't fit over the calipers.

[Welsh Dan]

Thats right, but I've been reliably informed that you can shave about 3mm off the calipers and they'll fit, which is what I'm planning.

[stuartp]

Your right they wont fit unless modified and they ar 256MM?

[Adam]

Ye, you need grind a bit off the caliper,Lol.
They are 256mm discs, 100%

i've found a set on ebay but the guy has listed them as 255 by 24mm i'm guessing it's his bad measuring...
