Default CE28N + Spoon Calipers

For people running this set up.... I'm running 17x7.5 +43 in the front... and people are telling me 3mm spacers should clear it... I tried 3mm and it does not... it needs about 1/2 more mm. is there a way to adjust how far in the caliper sits on the rotor( How much the caliper bites he rotor) if I can pull it out a tad bit ... it would clear it .


Thx!

im on 6pot wilwood kit and using a 6mm spacer to clear it with about 2mm. I know the spoon calipers stick out far more. you will need to get PROPER FITTING RIMS. I am running volk le28s and I ordered new rims a few weeks ago so my car may drive on wheels that fit properly. Spacers are gay, and they are NOT hubcentric, bad for wheel bearings.


Good luck
