There were two wheel/tire challenges this weekend. I had one black steelie with D shaped windows and a set of no-name alloys - neither one cleared the V6 calipers. So I borrowed a set of 1.25" wheel spacers. I probably needed about 5/8" to clear either of those 3 5/8" back spaced wheels. I don't see why I should try to find a special wheel that will fit, or grind down the ribs on the calipers a bit? I leaning towards getting a set of 1" spacers.

Then I took the MT/Rs I bought used to Discount Tire to be mounted on the no-name alloys and they refused to mount them because 3 of them had damage to the bead area and would likely leak air. I'm working with the person I bought them from to come to a resolution.
