columbas on a c70??

[theflyingbrick]

just in the process of doing a deal with Dave86 but it will only work if my 850 t5 standard columbas fit over the brakes on his c70,does anybody know if it will work??

there doesn't seem to be any rule on C70's to which car had 280mm brakes, & which had 302's. If you've got 302's then no they won't fit

oh ok so i need to find out,so if they have the 280 then its go?? thanking you fandango :)

Funny that, my car is in the exact same situation, all calipers are off and getting painted as we speak. Car is at my mums sorned, until i can get this stupid mondeo sold and get funds to get c70 back on the road :D
