Anyone had any problems with the fronts touching the tyres? Just picked up a front pair today and had to put my standard ones back on

Any ways round this coz might end up just selling them already

I got a set cheap and sold them on again for this reason. spacers cured the problem but then I had issues with the outer arch as I was running 16's.

I was using 5mm spacers so smaller ones may be better

What wheels do you have now? If you fit BBS RX wheels they may sit further away and not catch.
