Hi Steve, they fit with the aluminium adaptors and some washers to space them out.

Is it because the radial mount bolts from the caliper interfere with the hub bolts, or is it the bracket will need a radius on it to allow the caliper to sit in deeper? If it's the latter I may be able to help...

Do you mind me asking what you paid for the calipers? As I've got a pair in the garage with pads..
