I had to grind a notch on the little disk to clear the stem as it rotated.

Hint: if you do this, dont be timid. Grind a nice chuck off the disk. It doesn’t hurt a thing. Or you’ll be pulling the wheel again. Don’t ask how I know!
Been there, we just pulled the front pads out on mine and cut the little wheels off.

I went with a shorter valve stem. After the first ones got chewed up.

Gorilla locks all around! Auto theft is low in my part of Philly, no special security. Let's face it, if they want it, they'll get it!

Nice... I like silver wheels more than black or chrome. If a set of those was to be had, I'd go with those. imo, of course...

Thanks for the compliment! The wheels are MRR M228’s. All 4 wheels are 20x10 +35 offset, and all 4 tires are 275/40zr20 Conti DWS06’s. I got the wheels from Phastek and the tires from Tire Rack. No rubbing at all and no spacers needed.
