Could someone just take a quick look at the above address (on Bypartsby) and tell me if I have the right discs for a 2001 450 chim.
According to the page the fronts are SG2339 / 260mm / 24mm width and £26 per pair
The rears are SG2757 / 278mm / 24mm width and £37 per pair
Thats a grand total of approx £63 (inc VAT). If they fit that has to be the deal of the century??
Is 24mm width too wide? I seem to recall the standard ones are 22mm?

I can help with the fronts but not the rears unfortunately.
I have the later Griff 500 front brake calipers and because I'm a bit sad I can remember off the top of my head I have EBC GD150 rotors
The spec for the GD150 can be found here Clicky and does confirm the front rotors you are looking at are correct at 260mm and 24mm thickness.
Sorry I can't help with the rears, though I do wonder about rear rotors being bigger than your fronts at 278mm
Hope that helps.

Personally, I would take one off and go to Motorserve - they will know which ones, and you can measure and compare with the dud.Could someone just take a quick look at the above address (on Bypartsby) and tell me if I have the right discs for a 2001 450 chim.

May cost you £2 more - but at least you will know you have got the right ones...

Thanks for the advice guys. I really want to shop around a bit as the prices vary so much. I am getting very confused with which discs I need. The bible refers to 260mm fronts and 273mm rears, yet the ones on my car are bigger at the front (as you would expect). Most parts sites seem to offer 260mm and 253mm discs but not 273mm and some of the vented discs dont seem to look the same, ie they dont have the fins in the vented area?
- Would 273mm discs bolt on the front and back?
- Anyone know the correct parts numbers for the standard set up?
- should the correct width be 24mm front and 19mm rear?
Thanks for any help.

Rears Sierra RS Cosworth 4x4 90-93 273mm 42mm high 20mm disc. Q/Hazell BDC3807. EBC D558
Fronts Escort RS Turbo 86-90 260mm 24mm disc Quinton Hazell BDC3608P . There may be some evidence that the OVERALL height of front discs can give problems IIRC 58mm & 53mm are the sizes.
You sound as though you may Granada fronts, don't know the size, maybe 283mm??
