They should fit up fine as long as you have the brackets.

You may find if you use the standard rubber brake lines you have to grind a touch off the fitting to the caliper to get it to fit but it's a good excuse to change over to braided lines while you're at it anyway.

Tickford calipers? Is that the brembo's? Or the PBR standard with a red paintjob?
