Rear Brake Disc Size?

[Andy Rocc]

Getting a scrubbing sound on the rear when braking and Euro car Parts have a good sale on at the moment so a good time to replace! So does anyone know what size the rears are as ECP list 3 different sizes for my reg plate. A search on here suggests 288mm and a google search suggests 255mm.

Got a ruler? I'd believe that more than someone on t'internet.

As above, just measure them.

I'm pretty sure they are 255mm as I think the R has 288mm on the rear.

The 170 has larger discs on the front (312mm, normal is 288mm)

Yes, but the post is about the REAR brakes.

Plus the OP doesn't have a 170 but a 2.0 TSI which does have the same size of brakes 312mm front and 255mm rear, I believe.

Measure them.
Or if in doubt buy all the discs and pad types and return the ones you don't use.
