Brakes : Might sound a stupid question.
OK, what is the biggest discs I can fit on a Fiesta with 13" steel wheels ? Might sound like an odd request, but stealth is the main priority in this game, and the car should be pushing 130 bhp with a 2 Litre engine probably so it has to stop the car. Dont know the engine for certain yet; either that or an RST because I want the brakes and suspension sorted first.
And is it possible to get a set of wheeltrims like this which cover the whole wheel too ???
Cos as I have said above, it is all about stealth.

Strangely enough - 240mm which is the standard size of the Fiesta discs.
Honestly that's hopeless for any brake system. You should get some steel 14's.
The size difference isnt really noticeable and you will be able to upgrade to 260mm Escort RS2000 brakes which are considerably better when using grooved discs and quality pads.
Wheel trims are easy enough. Just go to Halfords!
