Bigger brakes under ERST alloys?
 
Hello everyone, i am currently running an F reg xr3i which in the summer i plan to turbo with a lump i have in my garage, but before i take her off the road i want to fit some bigger brakes. I am on a budget so was gonna go down the route of MK3 Mondeo calipers with ST170 brakes, but before i go out and spend my hard earned i was wondering if anybody knows if these will fit under my ERST alloys?

Cheers for your time, no doubt ill be on here alot over the summer!

I ran Cossie disks behind standard ERST alloys with no probs, u just need a mounting bracket to move the calipers out.

Im lead to believe you need atleast 16 inch wheels to clear the mondy calipers. Cossie 4x4 ones fit though inside the standard wheels have a look at the sticky at the top of the rs turbo room and there is a guide on what needs to be done

i did check the sticky, but i am on a budget and cossie brakes will strangle it to death! if i went for 16 inch alloys i'd need to do some work to the arches wouldn i?
