Default rear brake rotors

The new rotors i have are correct part # 944 352 04102 but the center hole is bigger and don't ride on the flange lip of the hub like the older ones.

I measured and the center hole of the new rotors are .5" bigger.

Any idea if it matters?
The lug bolt pattern is the same but i'm concerned about it not being centered.

Mike, if you do indeed have a turbo...say 87-89 Turbo, the correct part # is 951.352.041.02.

Mike,
Not that it helps, but I replaced the rear discs on my '83 NA last year and the part I got was EXACTLY like the one I took off, except it was new, of course. I suggest you ask the person who sold them to you why they're different.

Mike,

The correct part number for a non-turbo 83 is 944-352-041-02.

The small set screws is what center the rotor, no need for it to ride on the edge. I dont remember if the early na's had them, but I cant see why not. If you do you are OK.
