If you need the hubs, then you'll need the struts too i think

Are your carriers built into the hub?

The GTI calipers and carriers will fit straight on to a 07 GT TDI, you wont need the hubs.

As Joe stated, the GT170 has the same brake setup as a GTI

You thought about making it a hybrid, with the gti bumpers and such?

nah man....have lots of mods done as my signature shows ..would love ttrs or r32 front calipers but fetching crazy money so thought gti calipers would be a small upgrade on my standard diesel brakes but appears my 170 should have a 312mm setup already... :surprised:
