Also have you thought about trimming some of the JBA metal off ? Just an idea

So, I had the eBay uniball knock offs before this and had no rub after I put on the Spidertrax, but I can't speak to the SPCs.

If you still have stock wheels, might be a good excuse to get aftermarket wheels with the proper backspacing to clear

Good to know! As much as I want properly backspaced wheels and not have to deal with my spacers every time I have to service something, I *just* spent around $100 to get these all Hunter Road Force balanced. Granted their used tires, so I think I'll budget in new wheels when these wear out in another year or so, but I'm going to opt for the grind option I think. Something about putting another spacer on a spacer freaks me out.
Did he mention how much you can grind off before it becomes a problem? I'd like to grind it while it's still on there so I don't have to do the whole installation over again.
Thanks!
