Default Front Disc Size - 2013 V60 D4 163 R Design Lux Nav

Hi - I've had a look through the posts but can't find this information.
I'm replacing my front discs and, on measuring the existing ones, they seem to be 280mm diameter.
However, I can only find 300, 316 and 336mm for sale.
Any advice or help would be much appreciated!
Cheers
Rob

If it's R Design with 18'' rims from factory your brake discs should be front 16'' = 300mm and rear is 302mm.

I'm sorry but your maths are wrong 12" = 300mm not 16".

Mine helpfully had the disc size stamped onto the front of the caliper! might be worth a check.
Other than that are you sure you measured the outside diameter properly?

Thanks very much for these replies. I'll get the wheel off this weekend and have a close look.
300mm is what I was expecting and I was surprised when my rough measure seemed short of this.
I've had issues with different sized brake discs with a C30 I used to have, so I'm more careful these days...
Anyway, once again, many thanks.

What he meant was 16 inch rims and 300mm discs.
