That makes some sense of the front fit.

It looks like I need to shim the gap between the mounting bracket and calliper, again due to fitting vented discs.

Rear seemed to be ok with mine, bar a little gentle persuasion (hammer). My problem with the rear is the handbrake bracket catching the upright. Mark made a piece to fit this originally and has promised to post me a pair.
