Changing/servicing front calipers/Discs/pads/spring plates etc & noticed when caliper in place, it is offset to the disc. Meaning the outside pads/pistons have to travel quite a bit more for the pad to touch the disc.

Is this normal?

Found the culprit!

The Brembo disc replacement I bought is not the exact measurements.

Eurocarparts stated these discs for the S2 & they incorrect.

Will have to order another set :(

Not unique they seem to get it wrong quite often.

Yes, true. Also, if I give them the previous UK Reg number, it doesn't show up as a 3.0. I'm assuming these discs are for a 2.5 or 2.7.

But, unfortunately I could have checked the disc measurements shown in the details. Now received the PAGID fronts & are a perfect fit.
