Rear discs on 2.0TSI

[The Axeman]

Hi all,

Did a search but still a little confused.

Apparently some 2.0 TSI's have 288mm rear discs and some have 255mm rear discs. Was this an update/change or is this specific to some models.

I can understand if the 200PS rocs had 255's and then gave the 210PS's 288mm discs, but mine is a 210PS and as memory serves me are 255mm diameter?

Can someone explain why/how there are differences? I'm assuming if mine has 255's I can't fit 288's either?

Cheers in advance.

this issue cropped up as i had a set of mk5 gti rear brakes in black for the roc when i put the porsche 4 pots on and rears

rear callipers are different on 288 and also the grit guards, you can fit them as its plug and play but need, disks, callipers and guards

i still have the rear callipers gathering dust and some brand new GTI grit guards if you fancy the change and don't want red

Ok, i'm with you.

But what I'm getting at specifically is: Do all 2.0 TSI's have the same size rear discs, and if not why?!

Mines a 2010 210 BHP model so i cant understand why it would have smaller discs than a MK5 Golf.

Won't need the calipers but thatnks for the offer!
