You can use 2.8 capri disks, but the best 1s to use are e30 bmw 323i disks.

They just need a lil machining.

i have e30 bmw discs on the cortina and spaced ap 4 pots. fit under 13inch wheels only just. they work fucking awsum, got discs for around $50 EACH depending on your discount. they need the centre hole machining out to 68mm to fit over the spigot and 4 new holes drilled at the correct pcd 45 degrees out from the existing holes. it works seriously good.
