Urgent help! 4 to 5 stud conversion

So you're using early VR6 Passat hubs right?

 

No, standard Corrado VR6 hubs.

Doh, sorry i meant say discs :cuckoo: Too much reading through this thread :gag:

 

I'll try again,

 

So you're using early VR6 Passat discs right? :)

[daves16v 1]

Yes.

Which Etka says are 288mm, hence why I was asking if you were using the VR6 calipers. Will the G60 ones work with the larger disk?

[daves16v 1]

Just checked, they are 280mm, you need to look for earlier Passat disks. The G60 calipers use 280mm disks as standard and they are the same caliper as the VR.

Really? Hmm I checked the 95 Passat VR6 and it said 288x25. Is there an earlier one than '95?

 

Do you have a part number I can check? Just curious now ;)

Cool thanks. I didn't realise they put them in the Passat in 93. Thats an early one then I guess :)

Yes that is correct, 357 615 301 A are the disks I have.

My 5 stud conversion is complete, just need to get the wheel alignment done.

 

I'll post up some pics and details when I get chance.
