Dr Forinor 0 Posted July 7, 2006 My friend with a Mk5 Golf 2.0 TDi has just upgraded his front brakes to Mk5 Golf GTi brakes and obvsiouly has the originals to spare. He's pretty sure they are 288mm. Can anyone shed any light on whether or not they will fit for me? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted July 7, 2006 Think the stud pattern are different. 5x108? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted July 7, 2006 MK5 stud pattern is 5x112, so you can't use the discs, but if they're 288s (and they probably will be) you can use the calipers, carriers and pads and get 288 highline discs from where ever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taggart 0 Posted July 7, 2006 Would they not need spacers like the 312s? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinkus 10 Posted July 7, 2006 As all the mk4 brakes need spacers on the carriers, I'd assume the Mk5 ones do too, but no idea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
