hi spec caliper help

[r5 rich]

I have a set of hi spec 4 pot calipers which are running a 325mm disc but I want to run these under 15" wheels so going to have to change to a 285mm discs. I phoned up hi spec and spoke to them for prices and information and new brackets and discs and to say I was shocked was an understatemnet.

72.30+ vat for the pair of caliper brackets
75.72+ vat for each front disc
18+ vat for the spacer inside the caliper maybe needed if the disc is wider than what I will need.

Can anyone help me on where to get discs and would a set of the 285mm caliper brackets from the cheaper kits fit no problem?

the discs I have at the minute use the bell housing in the centre of the disc and a bit rusty as the car has stood for a while but being the size they are they will be sold. I am wanting to swap the discs and bracket but really I don`t want to pay hi-spec prices as its silly really!

send me a pic and maybe swap my discs and brackets (which are mint) for your discs and brackets, so i can fill my 16's and you can fit under 15's, if that makes sense ;)

will do, the car had only done 500 miles since being kind of completed so I would be more than happy to do that. All the discs would need is a wirebrush and some spray can paint to make them good as new again really.

are the same fitment as gtt? are they alloy bells and if so what colour?

i know my discs are mint as i do so little mileage, they still have machine marks on them lol
