Wrong size centre bore for the 850 though. You need the police spec 70 series 320mm if its those discs being used as they will have the correct centre bore.

i'm certainly not doubting your set-up, just trying to establish as much info as possible so i don't waste money buying the wrong bits

this is ssswwwweeet! at last we got options,to me it was either 302s or up the wheels go porsche/s60R stuff now we got in betweens,nice this is becoming my favourite thread,lol saying that im dew new brakes so bad!

**nottsgreent5** · Monday 30th May 2011, 14:45

mine are pretty new they just dont feel like they wanna stop as fast as id like them to lol

**Nealevo** · Monday 30th May 2011, 14:51

ok ok lets start again, ive had a fellow member come out and have a proper look at my brakes today, even in the wet he wasnt put off, wheels off tape measure out and rubber gloves were used......
disks are 316mm x 30mm off XC90, sorry i was measuring with wheels on and mis read, really sorry
calipers and CARRIERS are from audi 80 coupe V6,
braided hoses are from volvo 302 setup as they are a bit longer than standard,
pads are from passat or audi v6
hope it sorts out a few issues
photos were taken, Alan might put them on this link later
and probs ill try my best to answer
