Just taken these off the car last night as i've changed to an S setup. These have been properly modified to fit under most 10" wheels, unfortunately they don;t clear standard 10" steels and as i want to fit Rostyles in the future i've had to swap them. They've been on my car for about 5/6 years now and came from a rallycross mini so they're definately proven safety wise.

They started out as a standard 8.4" disc setup, the discs have been machined down to 7.9", standard 8.4" pads. The majority of the work is to the calliper, the mounting holes have been welded and redrilled to get them sitting closer to the centre of the disc and the outside has been machined down aswell.

There's plenty of meat left in the discs and pads, the calliper pistons could probably do with replacing or cleaning up in my opinion though.

Comes with discs, pads, flanges and callipers as removed fromt eh car.

Looking for £75 collected from Wolverhampton. A nice cheap alternative to a fiesta conversion without the faffing around.

That could work.

Lemme see if parcelforce collect, I think they do. Could you pop them on the scales in case I need a weight?

When you say 'most' 10" wheels, can you elaborate a bit on ones they won't fit? I assume any with high pos. offset that position the wheel under the car more?

yeah i'll weigh them when i get home tonight.

i'd say thats a good guess about which wheels won't fit, i've only tried wellers, revo's and original starmags on this setup and they were all fine. rostyles and std steels didn't go over though.

Seems Parcel2Go are pretty cheap as long as It's not more than about 25kg.
Lemme know once you've been to the scales and we can arrange some payment. Can't see them being heavier than that.
