Hi guys
So I phone vagbremtechnic and they couldn't confirm if they could fit behind stock wheel.

What I DO know is even if it all does fit perfectly apparently the brake pad swept area will be much less than on a 323mm or 330mm disc so the possibility of rust on the unswept area will high.

Also does anyone know the max brake bias we can have? ie for instance can I have a 330mm front and 306mm rear or will this be too much brakes on rear?

Should be fine on the rear as at the end of the day your still using the 2 pots on rear and doesn't really make much difference with a bigger disc. I have 2 piece 306mm on rear with the standard calipers. Pictures below

I was going to ask as there's literally nothing on here about it. As you have 306mm rear discs what have you done with the rear brake dust shield/guard? Is there a bigger one we can buy or have you binned yours?

Had them removed when I had the 306mm discs fitted. They were rusty and looked terrible. Not sure if you can get bigger ones, not had any issues since they were removed.

No issues whatsoever? I would be worried due to the build up of crud in the winter months and what not. I'm sure there's clearance to still keep the same ones on
