Brembo Rear Brake Discs

by Calibra_Mike » Sat Feb 26, 2011 5:28 pm

Ive just bought a brand new set from someone on ebay and picked them up today... never seen a set like this before... guy told me they need bearings put in them as they have a built in hub? anyone seen this before, Ill get some photos up. How would you go about fitting?

But since I got them for £20 I thought I would still have them off him, can always sell on if need be...

Calibra's rear Brembos do not require additional bearings.

they won't fit a mk4 astra cos the wheel bearing and the abs sensor is all one unit.

I'd say they're more like Corsa / Tigra rear disc conversions which use the tapered bearings.
