    I have 4 pot brembos on mine. Narrow track.
    I'm using mk3 golf 288mm discs with customs carriers. The pad is fully to the edge of the disc so no unswept area at the disc edge.
    I currently have d90s with adapters and have no clearance issues.
    I bought a set of 15" speedlines and I'm in the process of getting them fitted as it's not a straight forward swap. The caliper is fouling the spokes and the barrel.
    I'm still taking measurements and I think I will need 20mm spacers (less if I swap to mk4 golf 288mm discs as they have a larger offset) to clear the spokes. As it's narrow track this 20mm will help fill the arch better, similar to the wide track.
    To clear the barrel I think I need to move the caliper in 5mm, which will leave an unswept area on the outer edge of the disc.
    I'm hoping to get this mocked up over the next few weeks and then decide if I stay with the brembos or swap to the mk4 caliper.

    Have you a lot of negative camber?

    From this thread the narrow track and wide track have different length driveshafts:
    https://www.clubgti.com/forums/index.php?threads/driveshaft-lengths-bare-driveshaft-lengths-wanted.155374/

    So shorter driveshafts could be pulling the top of the hub in and giving too much camber. Which as MJA said would pull the wheel towards the spring pan.

    For ride height of VR6 I'm not sure of the official height. It seems to be 630-660mm from ground to wheel arch.

    Mine was originally a 4 stud. For the 5 stud conversion I only changed the hub.
    Is it possible the 4 stud abs ring is deeper than the 5 stud?
    Would anyone have a pic of a 4 stud abs ring or be able to measure the depth of the abs ring?

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    The abs rings are new from vw heritage(along with new hubs and bearings) and they show it's common across all corrado models.
    Abs sensor is febi bilstein 21582 (same as 1J0927803) which is correct for my stub axles.
    I'll see what I can do to close the gap.

    Does anyone know the required gap between the abs ring to the abs sensor?
    I'm getting this error for both front sensors:
    00283 abs wheel speed sensor 04-10 mechanical malfunction - intermittent

    Here's a pic of the gap between the sensor and the abs ring. ~10mm. Is this too large a gap?

    Looking to finish my teves 20 swap and get my rado back on the road.

    I need a teves 20 abs light from b4 passat. Part number 3a0919235af.

    I'd take a full teves 20 system if someone didn't want to split the abs light.
