has anybody used wheel spacers on the front ? i put the 11.75" rotors and wilwood calipers on my 70 cuda.it has 15" rallye wheels. i have the same setup on my chargers,but with 15" magnum 500,s.

on the cuda,the wheel hits the caliper.i filed the caliper alittle,but it still hits.i think a 1/2 spacer would space it out enough to clear.is it ok to use spacers on the front wheels? any other options? thanks.

I had the same issue with willwood 12.9 discs and superlite calipers.  I squeezed them behind 15" steelies with 3/8" spacers from here:

Be carefull with a 1/2 spacer as your lug nuts might not be long enough.
Also - if your running a steel wheel on willwood aluminum hub they recommend having a spacer installed as well.

I had to use the 1/2" spacers that came with my Aerospace disc brake kit. The kit came with 3" studs so I just cut them to the right length for use with the spacers. No problems.
