ctsvswap seems to be out of their spacers.
Anyone know the thickness so I could just order a hubcentric spacer? It looks about 3-5mm.

There is more to that than hub centric spacers, cobra rotors use a larger bore, that is you problem. They were out a few weeks ago and then came back in stock and I bought some, literally this was like a month ago. It is 5mm though.

Lol you think I don't know that?
It's a hubcentric spacer with an ID of 67.1 and outer of 70.5

Places already make adapters like that.

Seems like this could be made to work, right? Just turn the OD in a lathe down a couple mm... Thickness and ID is otherwise spot on.


@Ludachris Thanks for sharing! Great video. Piecing this together right now for the 1G.

Do you remember the cost of them? The price on their website disappears when they are out of stock, which is annoying.

50-60$ if I remember
