Default How thick are they??

Can someone provide me with the thickness of the rear rotors at the hub (i.e the mounting surface). I am trying to mock up upgrading a C4 hub to accept the C5/C6 rotor but need to know how much it adds/loses to track width. Thanks. Check out the link showing the project I am working on.

when are you planing on mocking them up. I will have a set of used Z06 rotors sometime this winter. If you need them right away, i can see if i can just swap my old ones out sooner. Just pay shipping and they are yours. Let me know and i'll see what i can do for ya

Sorry, this is all I thought to measure:

C5 Suspension[U]
Brake Rotor Dimensions-front
3 cm, 2 mm --- rotor thickness --- Source
7 cm --- center hole diameter --- Source
7 cm --- lug to lug spacing --- Source
11 cm --- lug diameter...don't know how to say from two lugs across rotor to single lug. Imagine an acute triangle if dots were connected --- Source
3 cm, 8 mm --- inside face of hub to rotor surface --- Source
19 cm --- inner hub diameter --- Source
21 cm, 7 mm --- out hub diameter --- Source
32 cm, 5 mm --- rotor diameter --- Source
Brake Rotor Dimensions-rear -- dimensions that are same as front are not repeated
2 cm, 6 mm --- rotor thickness --- Source
4 cm, 2 mm --- inside face of hub to rotor surface --- Source
20 cm, 2 mm --- out hub diameter --- Source
30 cm, 5 mm --- rotor diameter --- Source


If I ever remember where I put those rotors, I'll measure them for you.
