Well various reasons to that one though - faster car, much more force and heat generated, need a similarly larger area to dissipate it all, so the disc will be larger as a result...

mondeo ones are 305 mm but look a pain to redrill 4x114.3 and also the centre bore is a little too small!

That's the trouble with you kids these days, you want everything to be bolt on simplicity

most of us dont have a garage with a lift or most of the tools

the least time we spent kneeling or lay down in the rain or snow the better

Not unless you want to lick the windows?

Test engineer jobs always go to the ex navy guys and the only way to be a spanner monkey is being a contractor.

You should just walk in everyday and make prelude parts like I do lol
