3MM spacers for add'l brake clearance

With my new wheels, the wheel spokes are VERY close to the caliper, the way Forgeline wanted it, to get the max amount of concave they could get, on this high offset car. But I live in a construction area for the next few years, and I have seen a pebble lodge between the brake and wheel and scratch the caliper. Already has happened in our complex. So what to do? Call Ben at WeaponX! I explained my plight and he had his spacer vendor make me up a 3MM (0.11 inch) set.. They do not push the wheel out, use stock everything and not perceptible to the eye, but will let pebbles get thru.

Thanks Ben!
