The reason the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit, part # K2HR35D-8 is limited to 10 inch to 13 inch wheels is because of the hub surface.

My contact told me that the rotor size at 8 inches would not have enough mating surface for the wheel and can cause it to wobble if too large of a wheel is installed on the hub. The bolt pattern may be the same but the hub is not designed for a larger wheel.

If you have a 14 inch wheel and it has a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern I recommend part # K2HR35D. This uses the same size inner and outer bearings as the # K2HR35D-8 system but is designed for wheels that are 13 inches or larger because it has a larger hub.
