Front brake backplate/stone guard

Post by Nath&Alex »

Hi All,

I‘m in the process of collecting parts for a front brake upgrade, I am planning on fitting 340mm discs and would like to install bigger backplates/stone guards.

I know the 2018 caddy hubs I have obtained are the same as GTIs etc

So my question is will a clubsport/clubsport S back plates fit the Caddy 2018 TSI hubs?

Cheers

Nath :D

This may or may not he helpful, but the stone guards that came with the 345mm Golf R brakes I put on my 2013 Maxi didn't fit. The bolt centres were totally different to the Caddy.

I was in a rush to get the van back on the road at the time, but it's something I need to sort!

Hi Rob,

Yes this was helpful :D were they mk7 or mk7.5 Golf R brakes?

I could just fit new caddy ones, but wanted to take the opportunity to fit bigger ones to suit the larger discs I plan to fit :mrgreen:
