1/2 cm sounds right to me.  You may have left off the spacer on the spindle
that the oil seal rides on on the driver's side.

Subject: Rotor question

I'm doing my rotors and bearings (first time). The driver side rotor went on
fine. The passenger side is different. I put the rotor on as far as it will
go and there is a gap about 1/2 cm between the rotor and the dust shield. No
gap on drivers side.

Any ideas before I beat it to death with a hammer?
