rear wheel hub spacing problem

I am running a hybird rear hub. 4 bolt converted to 5 bolt.
Vented rotors from rear 911

having a rotor spacing problem
need to space rotor out from hub surface about 4 mm
Does anyone sell a flat spacer to fit behind rotor mounting surface??

I'm not sure if anyone makes a spacer but if you have a machine shop nearby, you might get them to make some for you. Why do you need a spacer? Is it rubbing/interfering with something?
Cheers, Elliot

Roadsportusa, I made spacers for my standard rear five bolt hubs when I put 914 front calipers on the rear. I have two thickness, 4.2 and 6.2mm. Not sure which one's I used, car still in storage.'Just use thin washers as spacers to find the exact size, draw out a template and take to a machine shop as Elliot said. Best, Mark, just read your post again, you want to space out rotor, not caliper?
