2wd cossie discs are 283mm and 4x4 ones are 278mm!!
ST170 ones are 300mm and should fit behind 16's! infact i think Christian even has 330mm behind 16's on his car!

Christians brakes look mental behind his wheels... proper HUGE maybe he could post some details of his brake setup? Just wondering what the biggest discs that can be fitted with brembo's under 16's

I believe the st170 set up will fit under yours mate... i seen em under 16's before now!

do the st170 brakes bolt straight on to the s2 or do you need to mod the caliper mounting bracket???

you have to drill the hub 12mm and use some spacers i think mate, I dont know how far you space them but im pretty sure you dont need brackets. I think focus rs brakes need a bracket making. I could be wrong though.
I also think the calipers off a 2.0 diesel mondeo are the same so it could be a cheaper option.
Let me know if you need any brackets making as i work i'm a metal fabricator by trade.
