I fitted Wide 5 discs to my Beetle today the kit was from Vintage Vee Dub and it went on easily (2 hrs) with no track widenening, it is actually less than stock (6mm per side)
I must say I am very happy with the quality of this kit and I can recommend them to all early bug drivers

now I can stop , I can make it go faster
Silver

P.S Old drums are for sale complete, Backing plate to axle nut see B $ S topic

Das I had my name down for a long long time, this is the only kit I ever wanted as widening the track did not appeal to me at all

penguin ·

Damn, may call them anyways about a ball joint version 🙁

I believe this is Boris' next project

That will save afew 68 bays from losing their front beam if he succeeds. Boris if you are on here I would like a pair of your splitty disks!

Pics?

Also, are there any issues with rego (because of modification)? Or is this an unregistered car that will get blue slipped?
