Rotor/Caliper Mount Clearance - mssing a washer perhaps?

[winters]

Hi Guys

Am fitting new rear discs on my 500, and have checked that the discs are the correct ones (according to Racing Green website at least).

I've noticed on both new and old discs alike that the clearance between the disc and caliper mounting bracket to the rear of the disc is very small indeed. There is more gap on the outer side. This improves very slightly when tightening the assembly up, but is still imbalanced.

Therefore I'm wondering am I perhaps missing some washers, possibly between the caliper mount and the suspension, which would provide some extra clearance? Are are mount and suspension indeed supposed to mate metal to metal? I'm confident I've not lost any of the fitted parts.

How are your cars set up? Do you have any such washers and is this minimal inner clearance the norm?

Many Thanks!

Thanks Quinny. I seem to have this on the fronts, on the rears theres not anything like 5mm to spare, but since new and old seemed identical i went ahead and changed - all seems fine. Will finish the job/fronts when I've sourced some new bolts per my other post.

Cheers
