the same brake that Halfords rebrand as their own."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

my front one is a 160mm so what size is the rear rotor its smaller than the front ??0
-
the rear is usaually 160mm. get an aztec rotor. fitted them on my gt, and look good, and work better in mud and stuff, mostly because theyre wavy.I said hit the brakes not the tree!!

140mm? measure it0 -
how do i measure it what part to wear or is it all round. ?0
-
just diagonally across the centre i would expect, you know the diameter of the front so measure that on first to check0
-
if its smaller then its probably 140mm. my formulas were before i upgraded to aztecsI said hit the brakes not the tree!!

Don't guess, go and get a tape measure or a ruler. Take your existing rotor off the wheel, and literally measure the diameter of it.flubic wrote:sorry but i miss typed the mesurments for the front disc it is actually 180mm so im guessing the rear is a 160 ?
Make sure the tape measure goes through the centre so you know you're getting the widest point. And if it's wavy, then measure at the widest point of the wavy bits.
When you've measured it, you should find that your measurement is the same as one of the standard sizes you can get.0 -
There are disks that are brake specific. But most aftermarket disks can be used on a few different brakes. Easiest option is to get disks that are advertised for your particular brakes.

they are standard giant mph 3 calipers so im guessing i can use any as i can't find any that are from giant0
