Got some brembo front discs and pads (getting someone else to fit them ) and apparently they won't fit my 1990 metro Gti due to the width? I'd like to upgrade them from what's on there now (solid discs). I don't know much about them!
Any ideas?
Thanks

you are going to need mpi calipers and carriers, spi ones arent wide enough for the new discs. You can use a set of MGF front calipers which are the same as metro gti mpi calipers, probably pick a set of those of for very little money

The spi run a solid disc and the mpi run a vented so the caliper has a larger opening to swallow the wider disc, the spi lattice wheels are same size as gta wheels and need a spacer with mgf/gti mpi discs, my spi solid discs worked great mind I'm still alive after all the brown noise moments.
