   they squeak, can fit them under SOME 15s they usually need a bigger m/c and are the nuts

   they only squeek if they havnt got enough copper grease on them. you need 15" alloys or above with 15mm spacers iirc.
   
   dsh85 had them on his old silver VTS, it sounded like a bus when he braked, it was a real head turner

    or use bendix blue goo on them
    that helps cure sqauling
    
    should also fit different brake lines as the standers are too short

    no amount of copper grease would solve it, it was down to the discs!
    
    i did used to cringe when having to brake, after handbrake and gears were out of the question of course
