A S40/V50 T5 should have the same as the ST as standard - 320mm (16.5").

Mine is a 2004 (very early) V50 T5 and has not been changed since new and it is fitted with 320mm (16.5") and I believe T5-Monkey is the same in his S40 T5? So it would appear the 320mm (16.5") is the standard on the T5.

Some T5's run 300mm discs
Early ones with 17" wheels from factory I believe. I'm burdened with them too... will be upgrading to Focus ST's with Ferodo DS2500 pads over the Summer |
