Hope Rotors with Juicy Calipers

[Thug]

I would like to replace my stock Juicy clean sweep rotors (160mm) with the Hope Floating Disc rotors (183mm). Obviously I would need an adapter but that's the least of my concern.

 

I have heard that the rivets on the Hope's catch on the Juicy calipers which renders the match between the two incompatible.

 

Anyone have this problem or has anyone managed a work around ?

eeeiiish, in eingleesh pleaze?

The Rivets should be miles clear of the caliper?

Thug, just get Hope calipers! You know you want to 

 

I think these purple limited edition ones will go really well on your Scandal!

Cant comment on the bolts, but make sure that the width of the braking surface match up with the width of the pads! Not too much of an issue if the braking surface is wider than the pad, but the other way round is a big no!

Ok, I'll use pictures.

 

 

 

 

Green circle on rotor = rivet

 

rivet comes into contact with green circle on caliper

 

If its true, is there a work around or do I need to sell my Juicy Carbons and buy a set of Hopes ?

Thug, is it critical that the spacers shown on that juicy picture are placed like that ?

Yup, otherwise your spacing will be all wrong and the caliper won't bite the disc in the right place.
