And how does the hub swap affect the cooling air??
Ah, because the spacer idea keeps the caliper in the stock location, closer inbound on the axle.
This cool idea is moving the caliper outwards and into the wheel, so as you are moving, air has to move around the wheel to cool the caliper.

Sure it's nice to have the vented rotors, but extra cooling is even nicer ;) Just build a small simple angled sheet that directs air into the wheels where the brakes are :thumbs:
