i have recently brought this mouths fast ford with its fiesta special. on page 105 it says that 16s and 17s fit without a lot of arch work ok fare anough BUT does this meen that 16s will fit an a mk4 with spacers and 205/40 tyers ? But then will i be able to lower it. Also do any fake rear dicks look any good or shall i go and spend some of my HARD urned cash and buy rear disks?

Dummy discs are crap! And you really only have the rear disc conversion for looks cos 85% of braking is done on the fronts. Its a lot of money to shell out just for looks so me personally would just paint the rear hubs.

A rear disc conversion need not cost more than £150-200, so it's not that dear! :devil:
