would 330mm brakes fit under rs 7 spokes 17"

 

Dont think so mate ... 300mm ST170's barely fit ..

 

really i really need to know as my mates got a set for sale that i can pay him weekly

 

My mate had AP's on his 3 door and RS 7 spokes wouldn't fit at all.

Their not good wheels for clearance

 

What about cosworth wheels are they a straight fit to a mk4 escort or are they 5 stud

 

Or diamond cut rs 7 spokes I'd love a set of these

 

Cosworth wheels are 16" if you mean Escort so no they won't fit.

Diamond cuts are the same thing aren't they ?

You need some decent wheels to have enough clearance for big brakes

 

What options do I have as I really wanted diamond cuts rs 7's but would also like these big breaks :-(

 

you can on rwd or fwd speak to reyland

 

here is my rst with 330 aps

 

Didn't Get this post matey

 

Think the calipers id be getting are high spec if this helps that looks mint mate I'm guessing they are 17's so does this mean I may have a chance or is it a straight no

 

martin at reyland made mine for me, is your car front wheel drive or rear wheel drive or 4x4?

 

phone martin but my advice is stay away from hi spec

 

Really why's that matey

 

well what options do i have if these dont fit i dont really want to spend any more then £400 and id like the biggest i can get on this budget but would also like as simple fit as possible

 

i would like to try and get something sorted by this weekend if poss

 

Maybe some s/h bmw 4 pots from E36/43 as these sell cheaply, and a set of FRS(mk1) discs 325mm, with reyland brackets ?
tabetha

 

what would be involved with this what mods would be needed and would 325 fith under the softlines matey

 

they leak,stick on ! dont skimp on brakes mate

 

Are they really that bad ok I guess I'll give them a miss then but what other options are within my budget

 

Do the cosworth brake conversion.

 

The focus st asbo stoppers should fit with a bracket for the calipers and a redrilled set of brake discs. Probably the easiest solution all round single pot calipers with big e ough discs to look and performe well enough in an escort

 

What is needed and what is involved in fitting and would it be expensive to buy all new parts what disc size Etc

 

i got 330mm compbrake 4 pots under softspokes

 

So a bit of a mixed review then well guess I'll have to try and see what happens
