   I was refering to the fronts. I'm sure they are all 247mm all round. VTS are vented though, caliper may be bigger

    Standard 1.0 and 1.1 disks are 238mm (Not 247mm like westie/furio/vtr/vts)on the front! They were suicidal

    I dont find my brakes criminal. They get a bit faded after a long thrash but they do the job fine. Do have mintex pads and discs tho but standard size
