seems like a decent offer as well: buy two pairs, pay only 1 postage cost

Take a look at the disc's on your car now. If there solid then they'll fit but my Furio had vented discs on, i.e the same as the VTR.

i cant see sorry but if they have a gap then they are vented which means they wont fit as the disks on ebay are solids i think

mine have the slits between but not the little slats

Basically if yours look like two disks stuck together other than a solid disk then yours have vented disks. My furio has vented disks

to get a decent picture of what we need, you wil probably need to take ur wheels off and get pics of the disk (side on)

Emma_ZS

You will need to check, as my x reg furio has vented disks and so does most of them. So check first to avoid having to send them back

djmartin

oadamo

8th July 2007, 18:13

the abs sensors are on the drive shafts so it does not affect what discs you have on.
