Escos brakes are better because th caliper design in better and the holes on the carrier are 10mm not 12mm like the mondeo V6 ones so you dont have to drill out the holes on the hubs. i heard fiesta ST brakes fit aswell but i dont know much about these. hope this helps

Fiesta ST150 brakes FTW

Bolt straight up no messing. Easiest mod I've done on mine to date and very effective.
