Advice: S1 Fulvia front / rear brake disc thickness
« on: 06 November, 2024, 08:33:18 AM »
Hi

Would anyone know the correct & minimum thickness for front / rear brake discs for an S1 Fulvia ?

I want to see if I can have them skimmed.

Also someone around the Gloucestershire / Oxfordshire area, familiar with Fulvias who could replace clutch / fit brake discs

Many thanks

S1 Tech spec minimum is 11.5mm

Interesting S2 disks are thinner new at 9.5mm so I would say that is the absolute minimum.

I recently saw a rear disk that was barely (and dangerously) 5mm - replaced immediately.
Its not the winning but taking part! or is it taking apart?

Just measured S1 Fulvia front / rear discs

Front - 7/8 mm
Rear -   10 mm

Enough thickness to skim or, buy new?

Thanks

Front minimum thickness is 11.5mm for S1 non HF from what I can see, pads 8mm.

Thank you both.

Looks like new discs for peace of mind?
