Hi all

Im getting conflicting information here on brake disc sizes, I don’t know what’s correct. I have a 2014 VRs diesel 

looking for front and rear sizes and which disc and pad is best to use ? Oem, trw etc 

thanks  

The Octavia MK3 2.0TDI VRS pre-facelift might have 340x30mm front discs and 272x10mm rear discs. To be sure, it's always best to check the car's build codes. However, if your rear brake discs are solid (ie. not ventilated) they will be 272x10mm. If you've got the big 340x30mm front brake discs you won't be able to fit 16" rims over them (or more specifically, over the front brake calipers), ie. 17" rims are the minimum size for these big front discs.

 

Jurid are a lower cost option than TRW and ATE, but should still be OE quality.

You have to check front disc size on the actual car, earlier diesel vRS came with 340mm brakes, certainly in 2016 they were only 312mm brakes. Not sure at which point the size has changed. I like ATE ceramic pads, then EBC yellowstuff (road, not track).

Hi guys, thanks for the replies! Yeh mine is 2014 registered in January .. haven’t had a chance double check on the disc a size or build number, thought their was just one fitment for the diesel Pre FL not 2 or 3 different sizes 😅
