i think you can squeeze a set of st24/cossie ones under them but they may need a bit of grinding to the body of the caliper to fit under em. i have a set of st24 brakes mate for sale for £110 delivered, comes with decent calipers, newish discs and good pads. just need to space the disc out 5mm and drill out the hubs to 12mm to allow fitment of the bolts and bolt it all in job done!

you can try as it has been done on some 15 inch wheels but not the rs2k/si wheels. plus squeezing 300mm brakes behind very small wheels means you have to add some alternative brake cooling from what i've heard. but when you modify the hubs you can change or upgrade to 300's when you can get 16's

i think you try but you may be removing alot of metal from the body of the caliper in order to fit. and removing alot of metal could be too risky as it could possibly make cracks in the metal and with heat and weathering, they could possibly break. i would tell him its a no go with the rs2k wheels. if you want you could forward him onto me and say i have a set of st24 brakes that he can modify to fit his wheels, they will fit as i said above and just a small grinding down of the body like you do the the mondy ones,
