Hi all,

Does anyone know what types of discs go on a Fiesta Ghia (t reg 1999)? Solid or Vented or does it matter which?

Any help would be fab!! :)

Take the wheel off and have a look!

What size/type engine is it?

If you really can't find out, you can always go to Ford with the registration number and ask them.

If you turn your wheels fully locked one way, you should be able to see from some angle, or get your hand behind and feel it. Or simply look through one of the holes in the wheel.

It's more than likely to be vented then, but yeah, check first :)
