rim to brake distance
hey guys, i just picked up some 20" iforged evolutions about 2 months ago... and the rims sit really close to the brakes... too close for comfort.. the front rim is probably 2-3 milimeters away from the brake caliper but the rear is probaby 1/2 - 1 milimeter away from the brake caliper... any chance that the rim spoke would actually hit the brake caliper? am i worrying for nothing? i asked this on another forum but got little to no help.. :P any thoughts? also any idea what my tire pressure should be at? <20x8.6 20x10 iforged evolutions>

I had the same problem with my Stillen Racing brake calipers which would actually just touch the caliper. I took care of this problem by putting a 1/8" spacer between the hub and wheel. It should bring it to a little over 2mm.

if i do that my wheels would stick out too much and hit my fenders.. i already have my fenders rolled... i wouldnt want it to hit again.. i guess my main question is.. will the brake caliper ever hit the spoke on the rim?
