Hi, Thank you for the reply. I have compared my calipers to the ones in the picture. The caliper that on the right is set up for the rear and vise versa.
Both mounts on frame and forks are post mount.

So..... if I leave the calipers set up the way they are, I will need a 180 adapter for the front and a 160 adapter for the rear, this will enable me to use 160 mm rotors front and rear?
Do they have to be hope adapters or will any fit?

Thank you cobba. I really appreciate your time and your help.
I hadn't noticed the difference in my calipers until you pointed it out and it explains why the front caliper wouldn't fit on the adapter I bought. I sold the adapters on ebay already and I could've used them by swapping the calipers around. Bummer! Lol

I don't remember which adapters I bought. They are now sold on ebay. My problem is finding a adapter for the left caliper in the pic. I also bought a hope B mount hoping this would fit, it didn't. The rear mounts are is, not post as I stated earlier. The rear caliper is set up with the caliper on the right, so I assume that no adapter would be needed for a 160 rotor. The front, I just can't seem to find the correct adapter.

Thanks for all your help and advice cobba. I got one of the shimano adapters you listed and fits a treat. The hope brakes nearly ended up on ebay lol
Cheers..
