You need spacers, and possible a smidge grinded off the calipers, but you might be ok with just spacers

i tried, and you need at least 3mm spacers

i shouldnt of sold them :(

Mark up the calipers and see what transfers over then?
It would be nice to see what you can shave off the calipers rather than space them.

Perhaps check the offsets on other discs and mill off the mounting face of the caliper.
