    Upgrade frontdiscs 2005/B7?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to have more stopping power on the front of my 3.0TDI Quattro? The stockbrakes are good but I like to have more 'bite' and stoppingpower.
    There could be a problem doing that, because I don't want to change from 16" to 17" winterwheels.
    The stockdiscs are 321x30mm (the same as on the 3.2 version).
    I tried Brembo the GT-Kit (330017xx) but thats not gone fit with using 16"
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!
    When someone asks me something, I'll do my best to help in any way I can.

    Hi Harry,

    12.6" is about as big as you can fit behind a 16" rim so I'm afraid you're stuck there. Try a better pad set like a Hawk, Mintex red box, or SBS pad set. Also, fresh brake fluid flush with Motul600.

    HTH,

    Hi Jeremy !

    Thank you for your help.
    I do now know for sure that there are no more options as you mentioned.
    I think I go for that
