Personal expierince here... Avid adapters and Hayes Are Not compatible... the Pads will not run in teh Proper Position.. Hayes adapter with Avid makes them run to high Avid adapter with ahyes brakes too low.... Function? Yes.... good braking?.. Maybe wearing pads Fast?.. Yes.....The adapters are cheap anyways And as Far as teh rotor?... depends on what year the avids are New style rotor is a 160 not a 165 for the six inch rotors while the Eight inches are the same Good luck let us know how it goes

That doesn't make any sense. If you put both calipers on a post mount (ala Manitou) they should be in the same position. The IS to post mount adapters should be the same. No???

The offset from the mounting surface to the pad contact point is the same on Hayes and Avids with the washers so swapping the conical washers is not necessary.
