I purchased a pair of hubcentric wheel spacers for my rears...here's the link:

Yes its ebay...but i've ordered from this company before. Anyways, for some reason they do not sit flush against the rotor, so they don't torque down properly. I'm worried that it might be the fact that i have aftermarket rotors that is causing that 3mm difference...OR are they just a defective product that didn't get drilled properly? Here are some pics to show what i mean...

 

bump...need some help

 

Not sure of the reason for the space.

Incorrect center bore?
Center bore is machined improperly?

 

Thats what i was thinking...but would there be any chance that my aftermarket rotors could be different in size?

 

If it is 3mm all around the spacer then it is probably the reason you stated, and if so don't worry about it that's 3mm more flush goodness

 

Just take them to a machine shop and have the bore out the inside on a lathe. Shouldnt cost to much and it will fix the problem.

 

bit off topic, but i ordered some aftermarket drilled rotors and they gave me one rotor that wasnt even finished from the factory, it still needed some grinding from the center... They finally sent me a new one. anyways, this may be the same type of problem, maybe your rotor or spacer was not machined correctly...

 

Don't think so. The diameter of the hub is still the diameter of the hub.

 

The diameter of the hub isnt the problem...check out the pictures again if youre confused

 

It's def the spacer. People keep trying to convince me that EBay spacers are "just as good." Here's yet another example to prove that they're NOT

 

exactly.

 

Send them back and pay the $15 difference for some quailty Ichiba spacers.

 

Have the center machined. If its hitting the hub like u said then just have them take off a very small amount.

 

dont send them back.. have them turned on a laithe by a machine shop and youll be good to go within minutes.. minor problem

 

yea i think i'm gonna go with that idea...thanks

But next time, stay away from eBay.
