Default Escos discs

Found a cheep pair (£25 new) would it be worthwhile buying them, considering postage?

Plus, do i need 4x4 calipers or will series 2 with mounting brackets be ok?

2wd cossie discs can be bought from a local car parts shop for under 20 quid per disc. not sure how they compare to the likes of a genuine ford disc tho.

Thanks for the replys chaps! Still inconclusive tho


RS500/104, That would be great bud, but I was only really interested in these as all in (if I got these 4x4discs, and could use S2 calipers and spacers it would probably of cost less than £50 all in)
