Ok I know this has been covered, but I can't find the info.
I am runnng 315's on zr1's and I know I need a spacer in front. I installed the wheels and the rim is hitting a bump on the spindle arm. It looks like I need around 1/2 spacer. Where is a good place to get spacers? Someone posted a link earlier but I can't find it. Has anyone just ground off this bump? Will the wheels fit without a spacer in this case? I don't care about classes, I have no class! Thanks, TIm |

I use 1/4" but I use mine on the rear with my 50mm wheels. I don't need them on the front because I use 36mm offset wheels.
You can take a hand grinder and grind the bump a little just to be real sure but most people don't have to. It's not a very big bump and wouldn't take 2 or 3 minutes to grind. If I get a chance, I'll put my spacer on the front and bolt on the 50mm wheels to be sure but I've never heard anyone say that a 50mm with 1/4" spacer didn't work. I actually mounted my 50mm's on the fron by accident. Other than a little grinding by the wheel on the bump, everything fit!!! Minor detail, you know??
