Default Reyland big disc conversion

Hi, was bored in work yesterday and was wondering if the 308mm cosworth 4x4 disc and bell Conversion reyland do would fit on an escort rs turbo? It moves the standard 4x4 calipers further out to fit the discs so was thinking if you could get bells that fit a rwd cossie and 308mm discs I can't see why it won't work the same as the standard cossie 4x4 calipers and rwd 283mm discs. The reason I was thinking about this was the 4x4 calipers work really well but I'm running 16s and want something bigger to fill them without having to spend a grand on 4 pots when I don't need to uprate the calipers
cheers

Just give Martin (at Reyland) a call, he will certainly know and will have been asked before, he is very helpful

I expect cossie normal discs and some good quality pads and fluid would be very good anyway though.

You can also go for 300 mm Focus ST170 discs with Mondeo mk3 calipers. Or 324 mm Focus RS discs with BMW E38 Brembo calipers, if those still fit inside your wheels.

Got it sorted. Phoned this morning and he's making me up a kit to fit the 308mm discs and bells with cosworth 4x4 calipers into an escort Mk3/4 and he's going to put it on his website as an off the shell conversion
