What ML 340 discs? I just know the ML450 350 mm discs, or the smaller 330 mm discs for Brembo 17Z.

You can get the centering rings from eBay.

57.1 I'd of thought. There really cheap on eBay. Take it you'll need wheel spacers aswell if fitting r32 alloys over brakes that use a 350 disc. Just a thought.

These ebay store sells them for example: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vw-Golf-Mk5-R32-Hub-Centric-Aluminium-Rings-65-1mm-to-67mm-when-using-GL450-Disc-/111305456764 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vw-Golf-Mk5-R32-Hub-Centric-Aluminium-Rings-65-1mm-to-67mm-when-using-GL450-Disc-/111305456764).

I have their mounting kit for sale if you're interested: mounting bolts and nuts and hub centering rings.

I fitted the Epytec kit that had those rings as well.

Just a thought, do need rings if I've got spacers?

Yes you do. the disks wont sit on the hub without the rings. you put the rings on first, then the disk, then spacers+ wheel.

:doh: lol

Another thing is the spacers I've purchased are incorrect  :doh: :doh: They sit on the hub but there's a rim that a stops them from going home so the guys sold me some dodgy non gti spacers ffs

You got them the right way round. Flat side to the hub?

Everyone's of the tfsi forum are saying take the fu***** hub cap off but failing to understand that the hub itself won't fit through the inner of the spacer.

Right mine is 57.1 mm so that's what I need I think can't remember now but as you mentioned the disc sits round it so the external diameter would be around 66.6-7 mm
