Re: 156 1.6 Brake Modified

I'm satisfied with my original brakes but I havr 18'' rims and original brakes look too small,so I bought 166 calipers however can change them. is there a caliper that I can mount 330x32 disc as a original alfa part??

Re: 156 1.6 Brake Modified

I have a disc with my old car, a Merc, that measures 12.6" in diameter. And I put a Mercedes brake dust shield on it that also helped improve the brakes' performance. The size matters if the fit isn't perfect so I prefered to buy kits since parts are fitted to other patrs.
