[Dave_J]

when your the only person driving the car, do these not get used?

or do they hardly get used?

any ideas?

[mike_obuk]

i would imagine that they get used at all times, but the front ones obviously do more of the work.

Yeah they get used each time you brake i think?

[SNewham]

rear are a lot smaller than the front because the front disks do much more of the braking.

[Scott]

think you will actually find the rear discs are 1 mm larger than the fronts on a saxo

[Craig]

[Scott]

front discs are 247mm diameter, rear discs are 248mm.
