Title: Calliper Mounting Hole Measurement...
Post by: P6UL K on 19 July 2012, 17:47:32
Evening all,

I'd measure them myself but their still attached to the hub  :D I guessed about 15cm myself but need to be fairly accurate for the time being.....

I can measure one for you on Saturday when I'm over at my parents place, if you can wait that long Paul?  Do you still want the wheels and HL trims?  In which case do you want me to bring them back to my house with me?

Hi James,

Thats would be good thanks mate, unless of course someone comes up with the measurement in the meantime - just let me know by text  :y

Better hold tight on the wheels for now as there are somethings in the pipeline  ;) But i do still need the headlamp trims if you please  :P :y

There always is with you!  ::) ;D

The trims are yours anyway mate, they ain't going anywhere.  I'm sure someone else on here must have a caliper close at hand they can measure for you, but if not I'll see what I can do on Saturday.  :y

I've found the combination of Mercedes ML discs and Audi S4 calipers works - the bracket between the two is a decent size and shape.......
