Rear brake disc size

Want to change discs and pads all round and because I do a lot of towing thought I would upgrade at the same time.

However I ama little confused over the thickness of the rear discs - I see both solid at 12mm and vented at 20mm.

Anyone know which ones will fit my 2013 SD4 HSE Lux?

Would love to fit the venteds but suspect they won't fit

Thanks

Dave

Well, even the discs on our Evoque Dynamic are solids. I'd had thought thought that if they had upgraded the rear brakes on a Freelander to vented, it would have carried on to the Evoque range - after all, it's only a Freelander in a pretty frock!

Can't you just have a look through the wheel at the rears? Are you doing the front brake upgrade? Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto

Iv just fitted mtec discs, went for the drilled and grooved. great around town braking quiet and smooth but at high speed (70+) the braking is loud almost like a grating noise until it gets down to about 50, im presuming its the effect of the grooves

my I6 has vented rear, I think you can fit them but will need new callipers as well. Common sense isn't very common.

You could upgrade to the larger diam front disks - easy conversion - larger diam disks from the petrol FL2, uses same pads and calipers for diesel FL2 , just replace caliper carrier with the petrol version (available on Ebay)

Anyone tried pagid discs and pads on the FL2 I have used them on FL1 and my MGZT always been good and come coated which lasts even longer if you add a little silver hammerite before fitting
