R32 Brakes on stock 17's?

[stephen8512]

Hey guys

Would R32 front brakes fit on a GTI/jetta's stock 17's Classix/Denvers?

[Tinto]

Yep.
There are a few guys in the states that have done this.

Hi Tinto.

Thanks for that. So it will fit on my stock wheels no problem?

[scotty1991]

No problems, also R32 brakes under classix looks tough!

[Paul_OH]

Definitely seen it done on the MkV forum under Classixs and Denvers, they really fill up the wheel on 17"s

Hey Stephen, I can have a look for you as I still have the classix and R32 brakes if you're still unsure.

[stephen8512]

Tomek if u can that would be awesome.

The classix I have are the same wheels that come with the GT sport I believe? so specs should be the same....

[M4RK0]

My dear Stephen, they should fit ok, I'm looking for some pics for you....

Hi Stephen I found some old threads which I saved when I was researching my upgrade. You will find that stock wheels are fine.

I am sure you have come across these in your quest but just in case you missed one these are my top three links....

Ap, these are actually your R32 brakes that u sold to John. I bought the fronts off him as he doesnt need them since he got the brembos and he only wanted the rears. :cool:

Im thinking of upgrading the brake lines and then putting hawk ceramic pads (same one as SUGA) before I install these. Oh and also, painting the caliper red to match >D

The rotors i'll keep and probably just machine before putting them on then possible upgrade later to some slotted items....but for now these will do.

Cool!

Same set up as mine. You will like the Ceramics - less dust and no noise! What brake fluid are you using?
