Default Golden Spoons, Calipers That Is

Hi,

Some of you may already know that I have been working on a set of Spoon calipers for some time changing them from their standard blue color to gold anodized. I have recently completed this project as well as purchased two piece rotors (Full Set) and anodized the hats gold to mate with the Spoon calipers. Lastly, I purchased a set of Work VS-XX wheels sized 17x8+25 Front (Includes 10mm Spacer) 17x9+35 Rear. I purchased these wheels to use while I modify another set of wheels. Notice how the calipers barely clear with the spacer, VS-XX is not a good wheel for a BBK.

Thanks for looking
