According to Minispares 7.5" Cooper S discs will fit under original Dunlop's.  
On their copies you need 10mm spacers to prevent the calipers fouling them.

Hope this helps

That great thank you.

I have a set of S Discs with hubs but they need refurbing and to be honest I just haven't got the time to do them so I might sell them and buy new ones if anyone is intersted in them let me know.
