Default XJ8 front disc size?

Just wondering what size the front discs are on the 1999 XJ8 4.0 because one of the onlne suppliers do 2 different sizes, 305mm and 325mm.

Thanks

Correct. There are two sizes of disc on this model.

Generally the 325mm is fitted on vehicles with R performance brakes and the smaller 305mm on standard but you should check the actual diameter of the discs on your vehicle before ordering.

As an added complication, they are also available plain or cross drilled!
