Kore 3 Rotors fitment

Pretty sure the Darts up to 73 or 74 had that oddball 5 on 4" b.c. which is too small for those rotors. They look to be for the normal 5 on 4.5" and 5 on 4.75". You'd either need different rotors, or have the hubs re-drilled. I'm thinking the hub re-drilling will be the only way to go, because there can't be many rotors in that small bolt circle.

Both the hubs and the rotor came from Kore3 , I ordered it with 5 on 4.5" so that I could have the bigger bolt pattern. I checked the hub and it matches up with a 5 on 4.5' wheel so I'm guessing the rotor they use must be drilled in house and it is drilled wrong.

Yeah, you'll need to call Tobin on that one. He's a good guy, I'm sure he'll know what's going on.

Give us a call or shoot us an email and I'm sure we can get it sorted out, whatever the issue may be.

I sent you a PM with my contact information since it looks like you didn't buy these direct from us.

Okay, they don't fit, big freaking deal...

Did you even call KORE3 yet?

We got a call and we obviously messed up somehow with the CNC mill work...still not sure how it happened, but it did. We haven't gotten exact measurements, but it looks like a 5x4.25" wheel pattern from the pictures , which ironically we've never even done before, so where that CNC program came from is anybody's guess at this point.

No worries though, Marty has everything under control and is moving foward with "adjusting" the rotors. Thankfully the center bore is correct so hub-centricity is still spot-on, so the holes will be oversized to fit the 5x4.5 stud pattern if I'm not mistaken.
