some of the metal on the caliper needs grinding away, or 5mm spacers

tried fitting them but the lug next to the spring on the caliper was very close, so fitted a 3mm spacer and they now fit fine

Agree

I had slight notch in this part after i had new pads but on. Just needed a bit more grinding off the callipers.

The steel wheels dont have such a big central area like the speedlines do.
