Hi, i have to change my front discs (C70, 2300cc T5 1998) 17" i have an old estimate of volvo garage part number is 271788. I think it's a 280 mm but how can i be sure? Well i've tried to see it by myself but it's not easy without taking out the wheel. Any idea? a part number or Ref clearly visible? Thanx. And for the rest i change origin disc for Brembo Max (SLOTTED). ;)
You should have 302mm on the front. It is stamped into the edge of the bell of the rotor along with the minimum wear level (23mm) - but you'll have to take off the wheel to check.
Thanx, i'll check it. Other : I'd like to change brake system, but don't want to spend 2000€. the best price/perf not to expensive. Could help?
No need for big brake kits unless you like the looks. Decent disks and pads and suspension is what you need.

And now, i ordered 302mm, thanx but Brembo doesn't, only 280. and now any advice about how to dismount Brakes? i change pads and rotors. And Wobbly, i didn't see the size of the disk written on. I saw the 23 mm min. size, but nothing else (made in.., serial nber.) Thanks everybody.
How to is in the knowledge base section. (goes off to find it) EDIT - Here you go... http://www.vpcuk.org/forums/showthread.php?t=6695
