Yes, and you will probably need flares too- as drive flanges are further out, like an S.

My personal opinion: Don't even think of using metro hubs. Everything else fine but not the hubs. Aswell as affecting other parts of the steering geometry it also affects castor and ackerman angles. The Ackerman bit isn't so import but castor is. While all parts of the steering geometry can be compensated for to some extent by adjustable tie rod etc, I think it is more effort than paying a little more for Mini uprights. I used my mini uprights and the vented discs, callipers etc went on a treat and brake like a threw and anchor out the window. My 2 cents :lol:
