The recommended rear Ferodo DS2500 FCP558H leaves an inner and outer lip on the disc. Ferodo FCP558H Pad Dimensions: 105.20 x 42.00 x 11.00 mm.Can anyone recommend a Ferodo rear brake pad that sweeps the entire disc area?

The only ones that I've seen that are deeper are the Bendix pads for the front calipers on the 1.4 - 54.3mm deepBut they require some modification to fit! ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments. Half cages right up to complete custom spaceframes - MSA/FIA spec, CDS, ROPT, T45, etc - PM meEmail me! Custom-made polybushes available - need an odd size or fitment? - anything from batch work to one-off pieces. |

The front calipers on the early 1.4 are a wider version of the rears, but using deeper pads.Only problem with using them is the pad is thicker and there's no retainer for the piston. FBD393 is the part no. ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Using Bendix FBD393 sounds like I will have to fabricate a retainer and remove some pad material? (and I can't even get a door to shut atm!)What about using a rear disc from a clio. I think they use the same rear pad as a gti-6 ... Ferodo FCP558H but list a slightly smaller rear disc and do not get a lip. |

Yep, you'd have to get some fabrication done.I can have you some custom made but you'd better sit down before the price  ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Could the callipers not be spaced out a touch more? I.e. further out from the centre of the wheel? or would this end in disaster ________________________________________ Team Supercharged Gti-6™ |

sorry phillipm, but you are saying that unlike the fronts where you could use say a lancia delta DS2500 front pads to get rid of the rusty rings, this is not possible at all in the same way on the rears?________________________________________ Team allesclar ® |

The only pads I've spotted that might do it were the FBD393 with a bit of modification, but I've never really looked into it seriously - I'm on drums so it doesn't bother me! - so there may be other pads somewhere.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Silly question, but how do you get around fitting pads without the piston retainer notch.I have some unused 1144's here which are for a front bendix caliper of some sort. They're of identical dimensions to the rears on my 205 1.9 so thought I might use them somehow?? |
