As above i have been out and done all the necessary work to get some cossie 4 pots and discs on to the front of my s2.
Only the problem now is that when i went to put my wheels back on, the back of the spokes hit the caliper as i didnt check this before doing any of the work.
With them being after market wheels i thought that the style of the wheel might be the problem?
But saddly no......................as my std s2 7 spokes dont even clear the calipers either.
It looks like i need 10mm spacers or so which is a bit extreme just to get the wheels on in my eyes.

So does anyone know what the offset on a 2wd cossie rim is ??????

cheers ppl

i did the same conversion on my s2 i take it you machined the caliper 4mm?i've got 15" momo arrows and they're close but don't hit....

My League 067s hit the caliper as well mate, think its just something that happens with this conversion.

I used 5mm spacers and its fine now

Strangely enough I put my brothers Zetec S wheels on mine and the wheels cleared the caliper fine....

DIDNT MEASURE MINE IN MM WHEN I DID THEM I TOOK .180" OFF ABOUT 4.5 MM.

WISH IT WAS THAT EASY WITH MINE LOOKS LIKE I NEED 10 TO 12MM SPACERS.
DO YOU THINK IT WILL UPSET THE HANDLING TO MUCH???

just a quick one, i've got a set of 2wd 4pots and am planning the same, is it right you need to have new ends made for your brake lines?

thanx.

Yes thats rite m8 also the lines need to be a shade longer too as the point of entry on the caliper for the fluid line is on the inside next to the cv not much room spare so a banjo style fitting is what you need
