of course... there are a million reasons, from clearance to just a odd reason to the designer just allowed for 140mm and didnt think about 160mm

It's weird as 140mm fits perfectly I'd have thought the specific 140 to 160 adapter would work but it doesn't seem to. The rotor just doesn't fit, It hits the top of the caliper making it impossible to get the wheel in...

You have the adapter on the right direction? its like a small wedge no? Just use some washers/spacers as long as your bolts are long enough
