I am in need of at least one scrap brake disc from a Focus RS to use as templates so I can make up the parts needed to fit the Brembo calipers to my TVR Griffith. (I would prefer not to waste a new disc by cutting slots or drilling holes in it...)

Also, what's the smallest wheel that I can get away with? I'm hoping for 16", but suspect it's at least 17".

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Hi

The biggest brake you will fit under 16" wheels are about 305-310mm.

The ST170 uses 300mm brakes, but if you want 6 Pot calipers you will need 17" wheels.

The RS brakes will only fit under 18" wheels, hence why the RS never had a spare wheel as an 18" wheel will not fit in the wheel well.

Regards

Tom aka Zippy
