I agree with crash and burn, if a 5 bolt wheel moves in any kind of vertical direction while properly bolted down, I think you're going to have bigger problems than a scratched caliper.

But, I do also suggest a spacer in case some crazy **** goes down.

Paper thin brake clearances are like a well tailored suit.
