Hope Floating Rotors and SRAM DB8

[travelinscout]

I am looking to upgrade from the SRAM Centerline to the Hope Floating rotors on my DB8's, and I have read different things about them not fitting or bolts rubbing. Has anyone done this upgrade?
These are the ones I am looking at: Hope 6 Bolt Floating Rotors All Colors & Sizes 140-220 (Brand New) | eBay.
Thanks!

I believe you'll need 203's with the DB8's, correct? They seem to be out from that location, but surely they're available elsewhere?

I am currently on 220/200 with my Strive ON. They both show in-stock, I am just trying to make sure they will fit.

I also read something that said Hope redesigned the rotors, and the rivets are now more compliant with other calipers like the DB8.

I would advise getting in touch with Hope UK or seeing as you're in the USA, maybe discuss your requirements with Jenson USA, they have hope floating rotors on offer for $55 which is a significant saving on the eBay options.

I did write to Hope and they were no help at all. All they did was suggest that I buy their brakes.
I did a test fit, and it looks like they will work. The area where the bolts are is slightly recessed, and there looks to be enough clearance.
