I got a peice of plastic block from a local plastics company (same stuff cutting boards are made of) and shaped it with a dremel to get it close to specs. I then send the dimensions to www.vdubcustoms.com to get the adapters machined out of aluminum. I then measured and drilled the bolt holes to match the calipers and mount them on the spindle.

This job was custom in every way so I don't have any dimensions to give out.

Crazy

Thats mad cool!!

Hey, when you reinstalled the normal size rotor hat, did that stop the wheels from rubbing on anything? Ive been looking for 18 wheels with a 7.5 or 8" width, but man thats hard to find a cool wheel like that unless its a 17. Im glad to hear someone has successfully installed one of those in a bug two! Your just a installing machine arent you!!

Peace
Clint
