Has anyone tried the 406 coupe brembos on the 307 302mm discs, theyer 2mm thinner but the same overall height compared to xantia V6 discs so may be able to space the caliper in 1mm.

Can anyone with the brembos fitted on xantia V6 discs see if there is 7mm of clearance between the disc and the caliper.

I don't think they will fit, pretty sure the max diameter disc you can use with 406 brembos on a 306 is around the 295mm area

I think you would need something to extend the 306 hub out to the size of 406 one. in order to maintain the same gap between the caliper and centre of the hub.

Ok, I thought it would work cos people always say you cant use the 305mm 406 discs cos of the offset of the disc not cos of the diameter of the disc. thanks all.


Anyone got any pics of brembos fitted on 288mm discs?

I thought it was all down to the positioning of the mounts on the two hubs.. maybe im wrong.

you wont be able to fit 302's with brembos on standard mounts. i got my brembos today and trial fitted them with 283's

there isnt much clearance between outer edge of disc and caliper
