Wheels contacting brakes on ep91


Recommended Posts

Hi folks, 

I've got an EP91 starlet. I lowered it on 35mm springs and this week tried to fit some new (2nd hand) enkei alloys (mostly because they had nice new toyo tyres) 

The rears fit 100% - no noticeable rubbing or anything (I did check the offset etc and the 195/50 r15s are supposed to be a good fit-right?) 

But the fronts contact the brakes! Doh! 

1stly is it safe to run odd wheels (14" front and 15s on the rear) for a week or so while i get this sorted? 

2ndly I'm after the cheapest and easiest possible solution... Which I guess is wheel spacers? Could anyone suggest any? (looks like I need to space them about 10mm each)? 

Or should I give up and stick the old MX5 wheels back on?! 

 

Any advise great appreciated! 

Thanks 

Wes
