Default SO brembo blanks won't fit over hub...?

You ever get that feeling where it's one thing after another? Well I finally get the assembly loose with half a can of pb blaster and a breaker bar+160lb impact gun. So today I go to tackle the new brembos w/ duralast ceramics and first thing I notice... The rotor will not fit onto my hub. This leaves me to 1 big concern, what hub do I have? Was there a hub swap at one point? I don't know why anyone would do a 4x100 swap with a 4x100 but there is a lot of weird **** done to this car... a lot.
Here's the old vs new... You can see the inner ring is way too large on the new brembos.

You can see the grease lines where the brembo stops on the hub...

ANY help?

So, measure the actual hub size and match it to a Honda hub. Could it be the incorrect Brembo?

In the process of searching that.. Looking for somewhere reliable. It's possible since all the models start with 25507 then the last number(which isnt on the box?) is the specific civic it is for... I was going to wait for a couple responses before I pm'd them...

So if the HUB is too BIG and the brembos are too SMALL... All civics use a 56.1 bore? http://adaptitusa.com/referencebook.htm

Cliffs: aftermarket parts sometimes don't fit.

On the knuckle there's a series of letters running down the side. I know you're talking about the HUB but the knuckle stamping is an easy way to determine what setup you have. Please post what's on the side of the knuckle - they're really big letters/numbers.

You have the "large" knuckles which means you should be buying rotors for any 94-01 Integra EXCEPT the Type R.

Possibly. They should still fit over the hub so that concerns me. It's possible you have something that fits the general dimensions of another car that's just close enough but not exactly what you need.

Went and picked up a pair of duralast at autozone for an integra and they fit perfect. Now I have to figure out what Caliper I have because the caliper bracket is stripped at the bottom(12mm) bolt. I believe it is an Integra from the replacement pictures because it's more of a "frame" around the caliper..
