Default K sport discs replacements

So just cleaning my discs up but I think they are past it as the grooves on the inside are almost gone lol.

Can I swap the discs for the 356mm version (I am currently on the 330mm) or will these require different calipers etc?

Also if i remove my hubs will my geo need doing again?

You may be able to accomodate larger discs, but you need to take into account:

1. Will you need an adaptor kit for the calipers to move them out to fit larger discs?

2. Will your wheels fit over the new calipers?

You don't say why your hubs are coming off, but I don't think the geo will be upset.

They are just disgusting, so I wanted to clean them up and put some hammerite on them

Wheels will be changed at some point anyway, i wanted 17x10, but if i cant get 17s over the calipers 18s will do

So it should just be a case of the bigger disc and modify the bracket to sit 30mm further away from the hub i suppose!

Bracket needs to sit 13mm further away, the disk itself is 26mm larger in total.

So a small spacer on the existing bracket should do it then, 13mm and a couple of longer bolts....

Will ring Ian at some point next week too, thanks!
