spoon caliper clear?
Im getting ready to buy some spoon calipers and i want to know if im going to need any spacers.
my wheel setup consist of 17x8 +45 regamasters.
if anyone is running this setup please chime in because i know this is a common offset and width. thanks
here are the pictures.
first picture is the inside of the wheel to the caliper is 1/2 inch (take an account for the first 1/8th exta on the ruler)
second picture is the inside of the wheel to the rotor. 1inch 6/8th
last picture is my finger being able to fit between caliper and wheel just for comparison.

Those don't like they'll clear.
On a side note, we test fitted 17x9.5+38 RPF1 with Spoons, not even close.

yeah i already went through that thread. it was helpfull but not so much for me.
either way i ordered the calipers and hopefully nothing more than a 5mm spacer will be needed.
the rule is 5mm and smaller dont bother. 6mm or more your car will end up on the floor.
