wheels not fit on front after caliper changed

I just got the Spoon 4 pot Caliper and rotors and a set of wheels 17x7.5+48 front, after I installed the caliper and try to put the wheels on. The wheel is not fit and the spoon caliper hit the spoke......think need 20mm spacer or hub.....

Any suggestion or experience?

The problem is that the 48mm offset wheel may not clear the fender with a 20mm spacer. I am not sure if it would work or not. You may need to run a 205/50R17 on the front to make this work.
