My car is still tucked away in the trailer for winter, so I can't get at it to take a measurement.
Anyone out there with the Yukon Fox length axles (5 lug) for an 8.8 in a position where you could measure the wheel center flange?
I'd like to get some wheel adapters (not spacers) that would make the FFR 15" wheels and Yukon axles work on a "hub centric" mounting, rather than being centered by the lugs.
I’ll get a measurement to you shortly. I got my Yukon axles and I got the ring adaptors both from fortes. Mike should have them to ship to you, they Centre the brake disc though, not the wheel.

This is the sort of adapter I'm looking to use - they're referred to as "hub-centric rings"

My Yukon hubs measure 2 1/2” bang on. I always thought the bevels on the lug nuts were what centred your wheel.

Chris,
I've purchased hubcentric spacers/adapters from the vendor shown below:

I don't know if this is of any help to you, but it can't hurt to look.

This may not apply to yours, because I used Summit's 31 spline axles, but the registration ring ID was 2.508". Just put them on yesterday. These are the ones I ordered:
