Hello mad..
The 300mm Mondy/170 hybrid upgrade is very popular and would work well.
To fit under 15" wheels you need to grind the caliper carriers back and redrill your carrier bolt holes.
I went for the slightly smaller 280mm V6 mk1/2 Mondeo option.
This fits under all the 15" wheels with room to spare. Although you need a 3mm spacer to go behind the disc and to drill the hubs.
As for disc and pad choices. I set this conversion up with some cheapo pads and whatever discs came off the Mondy, with the intention of fitting vented/grooved discs and brembo pads once I had it running properly.
The rubbish pads have quite simply refused to wear out and stopping power is greatly improved
(possibly due to the Puma weighing about half a ton less than the V6 Mondeo that the brakes were designed to stop.
I`ll be fitting some decent pads before my next track outing, but will not bother with the grooved discs, as they eat through pads like no-bodys business!
(unless they are free, and even then I`ll hang on to the std discs just in case pad wear is unacceptable.
Hope this helps, Stu..
