              Fronts are the same, but the rears have different bearing carriers.

                Managed to get hold of a set from a Pistonheads seller......question: if the hubs fit straight onto my 2.8 V6, driveshaft splines all ok, can I press the hubs out and use my existing carriers and refit? Seems like a logical thought, but hey I have not done it before!

                  IMHO put on the complete front S2 Hub and have the original disc drilled with four new holes and elongate one of the four original holes to be used as the fifth hole. Not as daunting as it sounds.

                  For the rear, just get A4 discs from a good condition A4 in the breakers, that way you get the disc, bearing and ABS rings all ready to bolt on the back.

                  ( Then get Mk 1 S8 rims or 17 URS4 rims? )

                  HTH.

                  If you want a photo of a silver Cab with black roof with S8s, pm me your e-mail?

                  I am assuming you do not want to upgrade the front brakes from 280mm.

                  Kind regards.

                      Pardon me asking but why are you doing this? Is it to get other wheels on?
