Hitting brake caliper

Has anyone ran into the problem when using stock front brakes with a 2.25 bs 15x3.5 front wheel on a foxbody. I pretty sure I'm going to have to use a spacer or go to aftermarket brakes

Wrong off set is what causes this

Ive got 1/4" spacers on mine w 4" wheels.

This is the back space I seen most guys running on yellowbullet bullet with mustangs. Just trying to see has anyone else ran into this problem. I will make it work either way

Backspace and offset are different things

this should help understand what I mean


You could have the same backspace as everybody else but offset is what makes it work with your set up

Some brake setups are meant for a 16"+ (17,18,20) wheel also, if it is hitting on the lip, it might be meant for a larger diameter rim.

It just the caliper hitting the back side of the wheel. Really the pad height needs to be thicker on the wheel. For now I think a spacer will work

Larry I had to put a 1/4" spacer on the front of my ranger when I did the strut frontend swap just remember you need longer studs when adding the spacer
