   to help stop all the questions about this that appear everyday.
   
   14" wheels - 266mm max, you'll find these on: 206 gti, 307 1.6L>, and i think 306 s16/xsi, citreon berlingo (unsure what models though)
   
   15"wheels - 285mm/283mm max, you'll find these on: 206 gti 180, 306 gti-6/rallye, 307 1.6L<, xsara vts
   
   you can also use the 406 coupe brembo 4 pots with the 307/gti 180 283mm discs.
   
   you also still use your saxo hoses.
   
   hope that makes things a bit clearer?
   
   to do these conversions you will need the matching callipes, carriers, discs and pads from the donor car you are using.
   try and find out what year car they are off aswell as this will help you when replacing pads etc.

   4 pots require spacers, shims or specific 15" wheels like TD Pro Race

   i think a mod would have to re-write it by simo as the faq bit is a view only part

   i doubt they will be, but unsure. if you go to euro car parts they have all the disc sizes.
