Been there done that with a non turbo rotor and caliper. The stock disk rotor is too thin to try this. The CSPs will work fine as they have a much thicker flange. It only increases the track about 3/8 inches. In fact I bought spacers to bring out the front as my wheels have 52mm backspacing. The hubs them selves aren't to bad, but the adapters are alot of work to get right. So far I haven't found the ghia style spindles to be as easy to work with as the drum spindles. The big problem is weight and lots of it. I calculated the total assembly with wheel and tire, lug nuts etc is running around 45 to 50 lbs while the stock drum setup with wheels and tire etc is around 35 lbs. I plan on weighing everything as soon as I have found my scale. I think it is going to be an eye opener. Hope it helps.
