3 mm Caliper Clearance / 6 turns lugs
I bought a set of TSW Valencia 18" wheels for my 2016 2ss winter tires. I got 8 inch wide for front, and 9.5 inch for the rears. I didn't notice that the rears have a 3 inch lip, the fronts are 1.25 inch.
When I tried mounting them, the rear spokes hit the calipers. I installed a 6 mm stack of washers on all lugs and have about 3 mm clearance. I installed a few lugs nuts to hold the wheel snug, and counted 6 turns before the next lug was hand-tight.
From what I read, 3mm should be OK. I am not so sure about 6 turns at 140 ft-lbs. Does anyone have a setup close to this?
