5/16" spacer for 4 lug info needed

I just installed TII calipers on my SA. I will need 5/16" spacers now because the caliper is hitting my wheels. Does anyone know the center hole size on the TII rotors? I have a pair of spacers and the center hole is not big enough to sit flush.. Let me know.. Thanks

putting t2 calipers of 4lug doesn't work, the rotors are a different size so the brakes do not sit appropriately. also theres the problem your having where the calipers contact the rim.

I have done this mod many times. I have TII rotors re-drilled to 4 lug.. It's just these 15" SSR wheels from japan that hit.. Don't know why.. It only hits by like 1/8" but to be safe I'l gonna run 5/16" spacers.

I just bought a set of old school SSR wheels for the car. They are 4 lug and don't want to waste the 1100.00 i got invested in them...
