As far as i was aware, i thought it was:

300mm > 17'' wheels.
280mm > 16'' wheels (some 15'').

Could be wrong, and probably am :lol: Pritty sure there is a piece about it on the main site :) .

ST170 brakes definately fit under (some) 16's. They fit fine under Mondeo Si 16" alloys.

You just need to increase the size of the hub hole from 10mm to 12mm IIRC to accept the caliper...straight swap otherwise :)

I got some Mintex ST170 disks and pads for sale brand new if you need some :wink:

I bought them ages ago when my brakes were playing up but I couldn't source any calipers at the time so I left the conversion and ended up bleeding my existing brakes and fitting new pads (crap greenstuff pads were to blame in the end)

Was still gonna do it at some point but have decided to stick with the original brakes as it leaves the option to go back to standard wheels!

they dont look like st170 brakes
also you'll need the carriers and fords dont sell them seperately
so you'd have to buy the caliper aswell which is £300 :o
