Title: TTS/MK7 R brake upgrade on 17 inch Monzas
Post by: Sajid2000 on April 30, 2023, 04:12:47 pm

Hello everyone. So I would like to do front brake upgrades and go for the MK7 R/GTI PP/S3 8V/Cupra MK3 setup or the TTS setup. I'm aware both these setups use 340mm discs, however have different widths or something like that. I don't wanna go for the S3 8P/R32/Cupra setup as these are heavier. I'm just unsure of clearance on my 17 inch monzas. Would the Mk7 R setup or TTS setup be doable with 17 inch monzas or would I need spacers? I'm going to get 18 inch alloys later down the line however I'd rather spend my money more wisely on performance and safety first. Bare in mind this is just for fast road setup and maybe the occasional trackday so I don't need anything extreme.

I'm pretty sure they would but might be worth checking the golf R forums to see if people have fitted 17's before. If they have then there is your answer.

Pretty sure they fit, I've asked on a thread here before!

Planning to swap out my fronts this weekend for MK7 GTI PP brakes.
