I ordered tektro disc brakes (md280) for my IS mount fork and frame. It came with these mounts, the manual from tektro website isn't very clear. How do I mount these and will they work with my 160mm rotors

It depends on the mounts on your fork and frame.
These look like is to post mount adapters? Are your calipers post mount and your frame is mount?
What’s the normal size rotor for your fork and frame? These look to have a +20mm offset but it depends on your frame and fork what size rotor will work.
Edit sorry one of the mounts is +00mm but my questions still apply
According to the manufacturer my frame takes 160mm rotors. Here are the mounts

The left one is the front, the right is rear. Arrow point down to ground. The holes on the side with the text are the ones you bolt to the fork and frame. The calipers screw into the holes on the the ends ( holes opposite the text as pictured if that makes sense). I believe they are for 160mm rotors, I am fairly certain the front is. The rear you’ll just have to try. If they don’t fit, you just need to order a set just like them but for 160mm. I am assuming the disk brake kit didn’t come with rotors so you don’t know and it doesn’t say? This bracket kits are common and can be bought for any size rotor if you need different ones.
