Originally posted by WickedESi Umm... I think I might be in the same situation. There isn't enough space in mine to turn the rotor all the way around w/o the shims rubbing, but I thought it was only because I haven't bolted up my wheel yet (since part of it clears).
Yeah man, just use a few wheel lugs to tighten down the rotor with the wheel off, and check it..You should have around 1/8" of clearance from each side of the bracket to the rotor..also, if your pads stick up like 1/16" or so from the rotor, then you have the wrong rotors. Or take the easy way out ,and measure the thickness of your rotor..If its 1" thick, its the WRONG one. Check the mimium thickness nuber on the rotor, its either onthe hub of it, or the backside of it..If it says more than .88 inches, then its the wrong one..
