the thickness of the front rotors for a 2005 1krr is 5.0mm. i only found this when reading a write up for the 2006 model that stated that the front rotor thickness was reduced from 5.0mm to 4.5mm. here is the link to that article

3.5 is the recommended minimum so i think you should be okay
nonetheless if ya are interested i have a set of 05 1krr front rotors with 1315 miles of use (came with the wheel i bought on ebay to fix my bike) and 4.4 approx width
i've retained my original rotors on the newer rim since i figured i'd get some cash for the newer rotors to offset the cost of fixing my bike

It says 4mm on the disc, and in the service manual. Where dya get 3.5 from? I would have them discs off ya but the shipping across here would probably make them not worth it. [:'(]
