Depends on the wheels, what size discs on the FRS Brembos?

I know the Seat Cupra R Brembos 305mm fit under some 'motorsport' type 15"s such as Compo MOs.

Frs are 324 I'm sure and yes there fitted under my 16" comps on my fez st but 15 mm spacers are needed for the standard wheels to fit which are 17"

I did it with a 5mm spacer, some rota competition wheels 16" et38, a home made bracket and some love with a grinder.
tight though, especially on a mk2 fiesta.
