We used CB's Roto Hubs on the rear of my girlfriend's '71 SB. Had
to drill out the threaded lug holes and install longer studs so we
could use 7/8" spacers and Porsche Cup3 17" x 9" wheels.
In my opinion, it's a good setup that is easy to install. Calipers are same as a '93 Ford Taurus w/parking brake cables and all.
CB Performance's front disk setup, with 5x130mm lugs, however
was not as nice. The lug studs are not nearly long enuff for spacers, and the rotors aren't beefy enuff for press-in studs.
Retrospectively, I think that the same CB Performance front disk
setup, with four lug holes in the standard late VW pattern, with
adapters to 5x130mm would have been more ideal.
Pics are on this site of the rear brake/wheel combo.
