[s-cars] going big

[Tony Curran]

Does anyone know if the 314x30 and 323x30 are the same offset?

Cheers,

Crickey, belay that.  I went with the Euro A8's @ 314 mm's.  441 615 301A
price was correct though.

I'm running BIRA.ORG system 3 under my stock 16 inch wheels (RS2ed 
urS6).  Clearance is tight but they don't interfere with 
anything.  From the BIRA site: Uses the Porsche 996 Carrera 4-piston 
monobloc caliper over the European A8 314x30mm rotor.
