blindreaper242 0 Posted July 21, 2008 (edited) I've searched and can't find the answers to these questions: 1. Will 207 Gti brakes (305 mm discs) fit on a 205? 2. Will front brakes fit on the rear if you use a completely hydraulic system? Cheers. Edited July 22, 2008 by jackherer title fixed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baz 421 Posted July 21, 2008 Not sure about the fronts as OE fitment (Gti6/307hdi etc) 283mm's are close tbh Using fronts on the back? Yes, not sure why you'd want to, and depending on exactly what you're talking about though, but some people one here have put adapted std 1.6 gti fronts on the back.

Rab Elliot did this to his gti6 track car iirc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
