ZT190+ brakes
I recently bought a ZT190+ , I knew the wheels had been swapped so didn't pay much attention given the sale price. Checking later I found it came with 16" wheels on, I didn't think they would fit a 190 so checked the discs and found the standard ones. Were 190's ever fitted with the smaller diameter brakes or have mine been swapped out at some point.
It also has a level sensor on the rear axle, headlamp power wash and no headlamp adjuster on the switch pack but projector headlamps not Xeons. Is that a normal configuration too? |

Sure it's a 190?

I've already been there, I was beginning to worry.

Sounds as though an owner along the way has probably sold the lights and put normal halogen lights on. Same with the brake discs, or he got the wrong ones, but I don't think that the calipers would fit with the smaller discs.Someone will be along shortly to give you the giff.

That's what I think too, I don't mind buying new discs and pads as they are easy to find I belive it's the caliper and mounting that are harder to find.

Yea as above.
If you have a level sensor front and back and no level adjuster then the car would have had the xenon pack with washers. Also all the 190s had the larger discs and calipers. 16 incg wheels wont fit over 190 calipers. Quite why you would swsp the calipers out god only knows unless one owner preferred the ride on 16 inch wheels so changed the brakes out to fit 16 inch wheels:shrug: The lights could have been swapped out becuase of cost for s repair or someone sold them. V strange mind to have that spec on a 190 then change it all out. The xenon pack was an added extra at a price on the 190+. Some weird history going on there |
My advise would be to check all the main vins match on the car.
