I have theses in Red: Mini Sport 7.5'' Cooper S 4 Pot Alloy Brake Calipers, pair fitted to these http://www.minispares.com/product/Class ... .aspx|Back to shop No issues, work well. ( actually the car really nose dives once the brakes are used a couple of times... Hydro car with front shocks) The minispares ones struggle to fit hydro cars so I went mini sport ones |

I have the Mini Spares brake & hub kit C-AJJ4028A, mated to 4.5 x 10 Minilites (part number through Mini Sport UK MLTMA1045DS). I had to take a poofteenth off each caliper across the lower front (which I did with a flap disc on an angle grinder). Was no trouble, and easy to touch up if you were so inclined - just wish I knew there would be contact before I got little grooves/scratches inside each rim. I think Mini Spares tell you there will be no fouling, but there was for me, so take your time when fitting up. By all means PM me if you want more info. Matt |

Thanks guys- Minispares are actually out of stock of the 4 pot alloy calliper sets at the moment so looks like Mini Sport will be the go. What would be better taking a poofteenth off the calliper or having the inside of the wheel turned down? |

not surprising they dont return them. I send them the same message 5-6 times in a row or more and then i usually get a reply |

From my perspective, definitely a touch up of the caliper. For one, I assume you'll be able to do it yourself. For two, you don't need to get the wheel refinished once modified. Matt |

Shouldn't have to do any modifying for 7.5 inch alloy calipers. |
