    Sorry I should have been clearer I have been offered the front calipers and carriers so I can upgrade the brakes. Obviously I will purchase new discs and pads and I have 19 inch rondals but I thought the normal vectra brake upgrade was 315 but the guy says the astra VXR discs are 320 so I am just checking they will fit my vectra?

    calipers won't fit, the bolt spacing on the hub are different so you'd need adapters made up, same reason why the 345mm calipers albeit do get used on the astras, but its not as common as for the cost a set of ksports or at the lower budget end megane brembos are a more viable option.

    Hi Guys yes I have done my research on the forum and I was aware of the normal upgrade route of 314 or 302 and I will be on the look out for those. I was offered the VXR ones and I just wanted to check if they were a viable alternative but it is clear they are not.
