  • Larger rear brakes

    Hey gentle folk, well some of you.

    Does anyone know which models have larger rear brakes. Mine originally came with 296mm fronts, I have the 321mm fronts now when I say have they are in my garage and still not fitted So I want to put the larger rear disc and pad set up on the rear to match. I think they are 315mm but its not clear on ebay which models have them. Any info greatly received. Here is a picture of my cat looking shady just to make the post more interesting who can guess her name. Unilateral cant play.
    The Reaper. Carbon Flash 2015 insignia Sri. Lowered, hybrid turbo 251.3bhp 554nm. Twin exhaust.

                  My 2012 160cdti tourer had big rear discs but I'm not sure of the diameter. They were vented though and the new tourers aren't. I thought my 2012 Insignia had strong brakes, better than the Vec C estate I had before that. The new one seems fine but they look a bit weeny under 20s. I would prefer the Brembo set up.
