15" to 16" front wheel - Help Needed!

[jonnyb]

Ok everyone, I'm in the process of swapping my front 15" wheels for the 16" standard rear wheels. I know I need a spacer set to stop the front wheel rubbing on the wishbone, but does anyone know what size?

You can use wheel spacers to push the wheels out, or rack stops to limit the turning of the wheel. Minimal wheel spacer size to allow wheel to seat on flange (poss not even needed) and rack stops to prevent hitting wishbone on maximum lock would be my preferred options.

Theres a thread floating around somewhere on scrub radius, which might help your decisions?

Thanks Dave,

I have been after a set of rack stops for a while but now TVR have stopped supplying parts for the Griff/Chim they are next to impossible to get hold of.

They only seemed to be plastic washers with a slit
