Biggest Brakes behind Escos wheels?
 
I have Escort Cosworth wheels on the Ka, and im just finishing off an ERST engine conversion. So i was wondering what are the biggest brakes you can get behind them? I was thinking of doing the 300mm disc conversion alot of the RS boys do, very much like the ST170 setup iirc?

305mm is the biggest if my memory serves correctly and thats a tarox 6 pot kit but requires a small wheel spacer shim

dunno whats on mine but there too big :cry: as the caliper has scuffed the alloys :wall: must have had bigger wheels on before the prev owner put the std ones back on to sell it :cry:

300mm is going to be pushing it a bit then maybe?

What are standard Esccos front disks - 260mm?
