Cheers. Its just the speedlines ive got had to be modified for the inner lip of the wheel to clear the pads. Didnt want to go having to grind the inner edge away

Well i bought the car with them on but Kurt had the car and put the wheels on it and said that the inner edge that actually touches the brake disc was slighlty too wide so touched the pads when it was all assembled.

There's 2 types of speedline, they were manufactured slightly differently, that hub face is different.. Have you tried switching fronts to back?

Only reason I say that is because they were ground to give plenty of clearance
