I dont think they will. I had the earlier MK5 RS2000 wheels on mine with a cosworth brake set up. Fitted perfectly until I changed the pads on the cossie calipers. Couldn't get the wheels on after. You maybe able to if you run a spacer.

use Fiesta st150 discs, then no need for spacers on the caliper carriers so the calipers sit further in.

I dont need any more brakes really, i just happen to have a set of RS2k wheels which maybe spare but in need of a refurb and was wondering whether they would be of use.
