OK - done some research but couldn't find much on it;

can I use Cooper S calipers with late model drive flanges and turn down discs? The reason I ask is that I've got a knackered drive flange on the cooper S set up and was considering the options. I've got a set of discs already turned down for the 4-pots so could fix the problem pretty easily

cheers

The offset on the discs is wrong, but I don't remember which way. You might get away with some spacers between hub and caliper. If it's teh other way, you've got to grind away on the "ears".

I cannot remember which way it's wrong.

I have spacers on mine, and my calipers are intended for 8.4" setup and I use them on a S setup. so you will need to grind I suspect...
