Call your Dealership and ask Part Department for the Part# for you VIN. Ask them what size is Documented and they will tell you. Sorry that I can't answer your question, but the first thing I always do is call my Parts Department before I shop. Laters,

Default What its NOT:

385 front and 335 rear are the W12 and S8 sizes, which no stock 4.2 will have. As a W12 owner, that one I know off the top of my head. Once you eliminate those, I think you have the answer. And as I recall offhand, stock front diameter was 360mm for a 4.2 in that era.
