Remember those 18" Racing Hart multipiece CRs that I splashed out on a while back? The deal of the century?
Hurrah!
Remember we discussed the old "clearing the calipers" thing?
Ah. Bugger.
Bugger bugger bugger bugger bugger.
And further more, bugger.
I tried 5mm shims. Not even close. I tried 10mm shims. No dice.
I can comprehensively say that 18x8 racing Hart CRs do not fit on a ST205. The brakes on this thing are stupidly big. This is only a bad thing when you have damn near 2 grand of wheels and tyres you're trying to fit.
Which is a shame, because they looked rather good. Flat spokes seem to be the problem.
Can anyone suggest a decent set of wheels that are strong, light and we know clear the brakes? And would suit a red ST205?
I'm about to open a beer.
