discs

A guide to replacing the rear pads and discs (272 mm) on a Mk. 3 Leon with independent rear suspension: The only difficult bit about this job is removing the caliper carrier bolts. The factory tightening spec is 66 ft/lbs plus 90 degrees which is very tight indeed. If the fasteners are rusty...

Has anyone used the 09.C306.1X drilled Brembo Xtra Discs on their Leon Cupra? They are the direct OEM replacement for the standard 340mm discs. https://www.bremboparts.com/europe/en/catalogue/disc/09-C306-1X

Stumbled upon this guide to fit larger discs to the Brembo setup http://www.drivertuition.com/LeonCupraBrakes.htm Takes them from standard 323mm up to 330mm. Also I'm not sure (due to the unclear phrasing) but might be able to go to 345mm?

I am buying these for 312mm conversion and there is too much choice! I do not want drilled just grooved.
