V8 disc diameters

Customs Inc · 29th January 2010, 10:08

Hi all,

Wondering if anyone have the disc measurements to hand for the V8's, front and rear. Got a set of Aston Martin calipers here that a might slide on my new saloon V6, but obviously want to fill the wheels a bit. I believe the fronts are the same as the 190's?

I'd really like the handbrake drum diameter measurements also for the rear discs to check if they'll fit the back, fingers crossed they will!

Fronts are indeed 190 calipers and discs. The rear are bespoke and fitted to the 260 only, with AP calipers. Rears are 332mm (I think),

Hmmm, I'll see if i can find anything via google, need the rears to fit, otherwise my rear callipers won't fit over the smaller standard rear discs

Pah single pots! Got 6-pot fronts and 4-pot rear Astons here, brand new from a pre-upgrade car with 8-mile pads for £300! It'd be rude not to use them!

Front is the same as the 190, only the calipers are mounted reverse. 190 n/s goes to 260 o/s and vice versa.

Rear discs are 332 x 26 mm and the diameter of the handbrake drum inside is 190 mm, not sure about the width though but guess it's around 25mm
