looks like a yes. they will fit . the listing above lists disc for the cars listed.
v6 and 2,2 are both on same list ..

You'll need the right wheels to clear them though, not sure if it's a specific sort of wheel but I do know 15" wheels won't clear the callipers.

im confused here . my car is on that list and my car has standard 15" wheels ?? so if them discs fit my car with 15s wouldnt they fit a 2.2 with 15s ?

the discs look the same from that listing so would have thought the calipers are the same . or am i wrong ?

The V6 saloon & estate have 283mm disks and Lucas callipers (Joe Lucas, Prince of Darkness), in common with other 406s, the V6 coupe has 305mm disks with Brembos.

ahh right, thats why i was confused because i didnt know that,

cheers steve

So if I get coupe rims will the brembo's fit straight onto my struts ???

And the disks of course.

Would you need the hubs as well?

There could be a difference in mounting holes on the calipers?

Callipers aren't mounted to the hubs The hub carriers are the same. The only other thing I can think of are the brake hoses.

....or maybe the pad wear indicator wiring, as they only just reach on std brakes.

hoses are easy enough to sort out if you know who to speak too
