Caliper spacers for fitting 256mm calipers to 288mm discs?
They definitely used to be available, it was someone like LMF (but they're not on their website)

If it's just a bracket you need made up a local fabricator could probably come up with one if you took them a template.

Didn't think the 256mm Calipers were compatible with the 288mm kit? As in being suitable for Disc thickness etc?
I certainly didn't hear of this option when I was changing my old Cavaliers brakes from 256-288mm.

Why don't you just buy some 288mm calipers?
