Porsche rear calipers on Golf fronts?
VIW28 replied to cactusjackslade's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
No good I'm afraid. The piston sizes are too small. These will be no better than a conventional caliper on a 312mm disc. You need front calipers, part numbers 996 351 425 & 996 351 426. The middle number represents front or rear, 351 is front and 352 is rear. -
R32 Front Disc Recommendations.

Bad advice mate, you can buy cheap discs that will crack... Personally I wouldn't be taking that chance. -
R32 Front Disc Recommendations.
VIW28 replied to himselfunknown's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
You can buy 334mm x 32mm EBC Turbo Groove discs for mk4 R32 from Euro Car Parts for under £150 with Club GTI discount. A fair bit heavier than standard discs but still a good disc. -

Tyre opinions and experiences
VIW28 replied to VIW28's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
Thanks for all the feedback guys, I'm still convinced that Rainsports are the ones to go for. Good to see some of you share that opinion too I'd love to go for 888's but at £180 ish a corner they are way out of budget and putting part worns on is a no go -
I'm sure you won't be disappointed, built by the best VR6 turbo men in the country

Tyre opinions and experiences
VIW28 replied to VIW28's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
I've read loads of reviews where people are happy with Uniroyal, only fault they seem to have with RS2's is they have a soft sidewall. The new RS3's seem to have improved on this it seems. What didn't you like with the Michelins? What size were they? -

That's great Lukey, some real good feedback there thanks -
That's a real nice mk2 with real nice spec! Must be pushing 500ish + hp wise?

Currently considering my options for a set of new 205/40 R17 tyres. I'm after something that will grip well in the dry and the wet but will also dispel water easily. Wear rate doesn't really bother me that much (within reason) as I'm only doing 2-3k miles a year or so. Don't really want to spend more than £100 a corner, preferably £70-£80ish. I have read more reviews than I can care to mention but with so many conflicting opinions. Good source of info here, I've read nearly every review on the top 15 tyres - http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre-Size/17-Inch-Tyres/205-40-17-Tyres.htm So far I've
