Does anyone know which disc's were used on a 99 Ireson, on the front wheel?
Here is a drawing of the current disc.

The information I have is that the Iresons use Fiat Punto discs on the front, but I don't know if this applied in '99. Might be a starting point for you to check though. The info I have also gives Vauxhall Nova for the rear and side discs so looks like it might go back quite a way. I am sure an Ireson aficionado will be along to confirm or advise otherwise.

I'll wager Andy Percy knows.

I don't think it's the disc from a fiat Punto as the "Bell" section is too deep.
I'm not sure the age of the chassis is relevant as I have 2 front wheels and the discs are not interchangeable.
Looking for the car the discs came from, so then we can get them turned down. If anyone can pm me Trevor's number I will ring him and ask him.
Thanks,
Whites

Lumley engineering have made discs for at least 3 different age Iresons.
Talk to Richard.

Late 70s/early 80s Iresons use turned down Hillman Hunter discs.This is what ours has.Looking at your diagram,they definently look similar.

The info I gave originally came from Kew, the Welsh W......izard, in a thread from 2013 when someone asked the same question about Ireson discs. I have just remembered this and looked it up to find the original thread which is viewtopic.php?f=3&t=46294&start=15
It may not throw any further light on anything, but then again it might...........or it might just cloud things even more
As Andy suggests, the Lumleys are probably a good contact.
