i posted this topic up a few week back about what cars the 256mm brakes come off as im wanting to put some on my corsa sport.
ive got speedlines alesio's on and ive been told they wont fit??

as ive deleted the post i cant remember what cars they come off

ive just been the scrap yard and only saw some on the vectra p-reg or something and a astra soft top 2.0 8v the gte shape.
do you think these would fit ? or would i have to get different calipers.

cheers

256mm come on the 1.6 sport anyway, but they are only 20mm wide, where as the ATE calipers off the astra you found will be 24mm wide.

And they will fit behind speedline's no problem, 256's fit behind standard Sport 14" wheels.

And are you really in South East Asia?

So you found a P-reg Vectra in the local scrap heap?

Must have been a cheap import I bet

Either pad wear indicator or ABS.

Nothing to worry about.
