What to Do... c6 calipers hit Spokes Help..

by maybe 1/4 inch... any issue running a spacer or it better to have the wheels cut? Cutting the wheels is something i would rater not do..



But if spacers are dangerous? thinking 1/4 inch maybe 5/16 needed..

spacers arent the best but as long as you have good wheel studs you should be fine. We are only talking a 1/4" Get longer APR studs and get the min spacer to fit. All you are doing is making the rim hat thicker. What about fender clearance though running a 1/4" spacer? Do you have enough clearance?

I do not like the spacers that bolt onto the hubs i like a full spacer that in a way acts as a washer. Can someone weld a spacer onto your existing rims? Make sure you install the rotors and everything so you know the exact space that you need

Not sure about the fender... going to order new wheel studs and some spacers.. may go 3/8 just to be safe.. if I have to clearance the fender lip.. so be it.. Did some reading on some vette forums and its pretty common... kinda wishing i went with the Bear brakes right now :-(

If the clearance is tight you may be able to add a bit more negative camber to resolve. On my 69 with C4 brakes, I ran a 1/4" spacer for 10 years. I also used button head bolts in the top of the wheel well and 1* negative camber.
