Has anyone installed new rotors and carriers on JB Power MagTan wheels, other than the stock, or the Sunstar full-floater version of the stock rotors? I'm having trouble finding standalone 296mm rotors on a 60mm hub, with a (I think) 22mm offset.
I'm measuring 'offset' as the inner flange face of the carrier to the outer face of the carrier which carries the buttons.
The Sunstar version is a bit too busy for me; it uses the silver inner carrier provided by JB Power, transitions to a black anodized button carrier, and then the silver rotor itself. I asked Takashi-san if I could have the black carrier manufactured in silver, but apparently that precludes the use of full-floater buttons, as Sunstar simply strip the AlO2 off the black carriers, thus softening the piece, and mandating the use of semi-floating buttons.
