    how hard is it to fit the 4 pot calipers from the mgf to a monty?

    You need to have 16 inch or bigger wheels to fit the calipers.

    Otherwise not too hard but you'll need the discs turned down to fit too.

      From what I understand it is only the mg tf 160 alloys that will fit the 4 pots under, so it is more a point of getting both the wheels and the calipers. There are other 16" mg alloys but I don't think the calipers fit under them.

          We have a brand new set of 16" MGF Trophy alloys in stock that these calipers will fit under. This set of wheels is £450.

            You can fit upto 295mm under some 15" wheels if you use either a Wilwood, Compbrake caliper or convert the MGF calipers to radial mount

              i have the 16" 11 spokes ready to go. what i really wanted to know was would i have to custom make any parts such as carriers or will the calipers just bolt on?

                From memory modify the hub bolt spacing, shave a bit off the caliper to miss the hub and turn the discs down to 295, add new custom flexible lines
