Some years ago I read that brad Roberts was building these hubs that would allow us 4 lug guys the chance to use vented rotors. Apparently for some reason they can't be found anywhere. I have invested $$$ in aftermarket wheels and want to stay with 4 lugs.
Does anyone here have any information about these hubs? Maybe drawings or something, so I can have a set machined. Thanks Zach |

Does any one recall what rotor bolted to these hubs? I wonder how much time and effort would go in to reverse engineering a front rotor in order to make a hub? Obviously thats what was done in the first place. I gave up on the 911 front strut conversion. I was all set to go with BMW 320 calipers and stock rotors, and then I find out about this possibility.... damn it! You guys are killing me.

I want to say early 70's for sure, possibly the 20mm thick rotors from the 80 year models as well. |
