does anyone know the code for them,as i am struggling to get any sense out of the pad suppliers?
I think every manufacturer has their own code?I bought Black Diamond PP/223 -Mondeo 2.5 V2 24valve
Or try Brakes Int.

Do you need spacers or different length bolts or do the 887/888 bolt straight on using existing bolts with no modifications
Those calipers are threaded M12, originals are M10 so the two holes in the hub carrier have to be drilled out.My discs were Scorpio Cosworth (Brakes Int. BDS5455), overall height 47.5mm and needed an 11mm spacer with appropriately longer and thicker bolts
Guys, thanks for your help, but I'm a little confused
Jojackson4 which disks did you fit?
Phillpot, why did you choose the BDS5455 disks, the spacer you had to use seems a big one which would have pulled everything inboard quite a bit, was there a reason for this?
Cheers

Fitting the 278mm disc rotors will need a 10mm (ish) spacer between the carrier and the caliper mount.Please tell me if I have any of the below wrong;

Fitting the 283mm disc rotors will need a 1mm (ish) spacer between the carrier and the caliper mount.
Some calipers have M10 mounting bolts some have M12 mounting bolts. Clearly you can drill out the M10 to M12 but you can't (easily) go backwards. I didn't have to drill them out when I converted my S3C to 278mm rotors and 887/888 calipers.
