Postby FRSTethan on Mon Jan 20, 2014 11:21 pm

Hello

Im new to all this but have brought a fiesta turbo that from what i can see is very well known on this website. H708 FBG!

I want to keep the standard 3 spoke alloys for now but want to upgrade the brakes. what are the biggest/best brake set up that fits under the 3 spokes?

any advise will be great!

This would be good to know actually as I plan on going back to my three spokes.

I would like to know some opinions on this too. Someone must know a good setup with standard 3 spokes?!

Id say you'd be pushed to find an upgrade but any decent disc & pad combos with braided hoses plus you can always do a mk5 escort servo upgrade which looks factory & vastly improves the pedal feel, these should do the trick provided your not going mad on power :D
