Cheers mate - I was hoping to keep that tucked in look (I have a two inch beam as well)...looks like I might need to go narrower!! Or perhaps I just
fit my Erco's, that might be simpler

On Rods , I cut some threads off and you cut or grind the slip in part of grease cap so it goes further in and flaten cap end too . No spacers needed
either end of car .

Yeah Pete, I did that when I had drums on the front but with the VVDS discs the thick washer used pushes the aluminium clamping bolt out further than
the rim lip itself meaning that even if you shave threads/skim the clamp it still won't fit.
Polak, those spacers do look pretty trick, can you PM me what they'd be worth to have a pair made up?
Cheers mate

yeah pete, same, there is completely no room to do that... been there and melted my brain trying to get it, but no go... spacers are the go.... yeah
Al ill try get u a price tomorrow.... get u 4 made that way u can mix n match.... plus depending on ur mag bolts, you may need to get the longer
ones.... i needed 2 3mm spacers per side as thickest mattie can cut is 5mm and i needed 6mm total. its all lazer cut and he has the program all ready
to go.
