Maybe the Parts listing is incorrect ...Below is from a 1996 Factory Service Manual ...

But this is just academic because in practice one is correct and one isn't ... Look in your Cast wheel. Could you even fit those larger flanges through your wheel?

Can you post a good pic of your wheel?

Difference in the spacers is the length, DO NOT mix & match or the end play will be thrown off.

Actually if those dimensions for REAR spacer sleeves below are correct, then the Front and Rear sleeves are the same length
... (because they use the same part#'s Front and Rear)

May be on that bike & year but do not take that as being gospel for all of them. I'd put the calipers to the new one and check the length just to be sure, had a few that weren't.

Yeah, as I suspected ... they just pointed to the Wrong Spacer in the Rear Parts illustration

They have the Correct Part# / Description though and that's the most important

Here's your Laced wheel Front and Rear spacer sleeve
