This is just a very general question but are hubs on most cars the same,
like where the caliper attaches.

im in the middle of building some brake kits for various cars, if you can get a complete strut and hub assembly then it will be easy to make up a kit for you.

well i have found out that i can get 290mm and 310mm off the jimny and vitara and the calipers go straight on if my maths are correct. so i might try this first.
standards are 257mm
but i would need to get the larger disc's redrilled, what sort of places offer this. there is a couple of large tuning places near me like graham goode so im gonna give them a call.
