Nice wheels, mate. How do you find the 215 tyres? I'm running 205's on my 17x8 Comps because they are pretty wide but wouldn't mind the extra rubber on the ground. My rear brakes do add a touch more width at the rear though.
I will let you know on a test run when I get the other 215 on

They look great. They fill the arches just right. This is the problem I have, even with 205 tyres! The fronts, like you said, have 3mm spacers IIRC to clear the coilovers, but the rears are Un-spaced

Must be the extra width from the rear discs, but can't see if t being that much! The fronts on yours look about the same as mine in the arches.

I have the Brembo set up with a bell and rota. The rota might be thicker, maybe, than a Cossie rear? The rota couldn't be any thinner, however, as the wheel is very close to the coilover un-spaced. Oh well, they look good and until I can find a set of MH600's they'll be staying!

Sorry for the bump...
Don't suppose you have any pics to hand of your brembo set up?
And what discs are you running up front? ( I know you did mention it at Fordfair, I've slept since then
)
Might give my set up one more try on the Orion before I decide to sell em on...

Originally Dave had standard Focus rs discs but when they wore out, he replaced them with a rotor / bell set up. Still standard size and offset etc etc so fitment still the same.
