Steelies - clearance issues with stock caliper bracket?

[dubseven]

Tried test fitting some 15x8 4.75" backspace (ET6 roughly?) wheels tonight. The hub on the wheel is VERY wide, and hits the caliper bracket. Has anyone else had this issue? Any solutions? Not really wanting to cut the caliper bracket brace, as it would compromise it.....

I think pretty much everyone is using 10mm spacers up front to clear the brakes on custom steelies.

How bad is it hitting? Like you can't get the lugs tight? Or just a little scraping?

more than likely your going to need a spacer. its needs to be a flat spacer only drilled for 4x100. Or you need to cut that part off of the pad carrier like everyone else has done.
