i've been trying to fit my disks but cant find anywhere that'll drill them to 4 stud because of the hole on the left disk overlapping.
does anyone have a template for the 288mm disks where none of the holes overlap, or is that how everyone has got them drilled?


standard disks and calipers on aswell as vectra ones thats why calipers on wrong side btw. was just checking how much room i roughly had with my wheels

One hole becomes a slot on the ones from lmf iirc thier is no other way other than getting 4 stud discs

i dont think they do any 4 stud 288 284 or 280 on any car so cant really buy them, but tbh dont know what lmf or iirc is just guessing the old disk that was drilled is the way everyone drills them??

yeah they were, they over lap on a few of the exisiting holes as your one does that why i needed the spogot rings to make sure they centered right as i got fed up having to chase the holes when i got a puncture

yeah i've got the spiggot rings and my drilled disks fit perfectly but there warped. just found a place that'll do it for 50 which is a bit pricey compared to the 25 the other place is doing but at least it'll be a proper job.

just phoned fmp and they want 62 for meriva disks.
but doesnt the 8mm make a bit of a difference, just had a look the theres a 4mm gap going around the old disk where the pad didnt touch. so with meriva disks wouldnt there be no gap on the disks?
