New Wheels = Problem...Ideas

[ETH4N]

Hey Guys

So got my 17" SS Wheels today, put the 1st three on, all sweet, got to the third, and no go.

Stock wheel off, look at the hub, and there is like a lip (kind of like a spacer, i suppose, but not a spacer...)

Heres a pic of the HUB, and also the back of the wheel (incase your unsure what it looks like)

Any ideas??

does the other side disk brake look the same???

 

[ETH4N]

No, other side was flat (no lip), fitted perfectly!

if its a second hand car then someone has put a different rotor on, personally (if you can afford it) id get 2 new rotors and put them on

I haven't at the moment, but I will try and get one, does it look familiar?, any easy way to get around this?

Id have to agree,,,,,,,sounds as if you have the wrong disc/hub combo for sure

Ok, so I guess I'm going to have to replace the front left hub, any ideas on rough pricing from wreckers?

Just replaced both front hubs today on VR with ABS and the old ones had the spigot like the photo above and the brand new ones had the same spigots as your photo - I thought the spigots were normal?
