I bent a piece of tig wire to match the diameter and backspacing and it looks like I might have some interference around the tie rod depending on the inside diameter of the rim. Do you have any pictures showing that there is no interference? Does it matter what type of brakes you have or are there any other contributing factors to this issue. I would just like make sure before I order the wheels. I would hate to have to pay to ship the wheels back. Thanks.
