Them's Ford Fiesta, common conversion in USA. Nice--- but you still need disc brake swivel hubs for it! :lol:

Dunno about new Ford FIESTA. The ones in pics above are from earlier ones, they will fit under 10s. :P

Forget Ford FESTIVA- it's totally different setup. :cry:

They fit in ten's? Really because 8.4" is quite big to fit in 10" rims aint it

That would explain it then how much do people think that these disc's would go for in their completeness

I'd forget it- none of 'em over here, you won't get parts.
In US you can buy these calipers rebuilt exchange for US$50 or so. :wink:

I'll say this again- (and I own some Honda ones)- if you want 10" wheels and discs, and no hassles, only 7" Cooper or 7.5" Cooper S discs will fit in there with any Mini wheel and give you no grief about dodgy fitting practice & engineering compliance.

12" or 13" wheels? different story- either 9.1" Hondas or 9.2" Camiras work brilliantly. :wink:

Down here in Syd-en-ey a set of Honda discs and calipers is around $80. Then you need to get the machining etc done.
No, I don't do them..
:idea: Ping animal- he does them up there in Qld, and already has Qld Roads? approval. :wink:
