172/182 Rear Brake Pads Same As Pug 306 GTi???

[christurbo]

Just had some rear brake pads delivered by GDI [only ordered them late yesterday afternoon! Great Service adn the cheapest around!]

On the side of the box it says Pug 306 GTi - are these the same as the 172?

The pads look exactly the same as some pics I have seen of some rear pads off 172's so I think I am alright!

Cheers,

Chris

i used a set of saxo green stuff pads i had on the back of my 182.

must be a generic pad for so many applications!

Ive got some that say 306gti and citroen bx on the box, they fit in the caliper/right shape but there is too much tread on each pad so they are too thick. Just need to stick one on the grinder, I thought I read on here somewhere the proper clios ones have a thicker one and a thinner one.

Mine are both thin like oem ones. GDI supply them so Im sure they will be OK>.
