Hey guys/girls,

Could some please tell me the size of the discs diameter for a:

SEAT Leon SE 2002 Mk1 1.8 20v Non turbo.

I have been told there is TWO sizes that match my car 280mm-288mm.
Which is correct?


Kind Regards

Daniel

Best bet mate is to take the wheel off and measure. Last thing you what is to be the wrong size from guess work.

Agree wheel off will be the most accurate however if you can measure the disc thickness through the spokes 25mm will be for discs 288 - 312 diameter, 22mm covers 256 - 280.

Then if your wheel spokes allow you to view opposite sides of the wheel and running the tape measuring edge through the centre point you should easily be able to see the difference between a disc of 256 or 288, just be aware of parallax view errors.
