It will be if you`ve got 16" columba wheels on mate if you have 16" later style perfo`s or 17" any other style you could always upgrade to the 302mm discs for better braking performance

I would go for the 302s as long as you have the wheels to fit would have thought that you have though.

Bear in mind extending to 302s means you must buy the extended caliper carriers which I believe are £60 a side.

And its wise to buy the longer brake lines as well.

The carriers are £35 each plus a £17 surplus which you don't get back by returning smaller carriers! I'm still on the original hoses until I can get it in the garage for a new o/s brake pipe.

Yes just unhook them from the strut and they serve their purpose fine,
