I bought some 4 pot calipers a little while ago and they came with some discs which i thought would fit
But turns out the disc bolt threads have been damaged so i'm trying to get some new discs for them but everywhere seems to say 8.4, 7.9 or 7.5 discs

so my question is, how can i find out what size my caliper is?
It doesnt say on it and the guy who sold it to me didnt seem to know either.
I'm pretty sure its not the 7.5 ones as they go with the cooper s set up right?

They are from Mini Sport and have a 40 years emblem on them....

I'm sure its something pretty simple and im just being dumb
Any help much appriciated

look inside the calliper and by that i mean the part where the disc runs it dose tell you.

Fitted some mini sport ones once and they were 7.5 and the caliper had 7.5 stamped/engraved on it.

Having said that, I think they might supply 7.9 as well.

Best thing to do is give MiniSport a ring tomorrow. Look for any part numbers on the calipers.

Thanks!!
Didnt look very closely there and it says 7.9, was very blended in..
lol
that was a massive help, thank you both!

My minisport 7.9" calipers have 7.9 milled on them, not sure exactly where off the top of my head but could be on the mounting lug

edit too late!
