Default Verifying correct measurement for the front center bore

I've recently decided to run ap1 rears on the front of my s2k and I found a machine shop to bore them out for me. All I need to do is give them the size I need the wheels bored to, so I thought I'd double check my findings on teh internetz with you guys to make sure. So is the oem front center bore 70.7mm? Thanks!

Ehh if I remember correctly one of the hubs is pretty rusty and the other is not so bad. Should I just do 70.2 for both wheels? Will that extra mm be enough to cause any noise?

I was mostly goofing around. The extra .1MM won't cause any problems if you properly tighten the lug nuts.

You should probably use a wire brush to be rid of any surface rust you can get off.
