Default Wheels clear new calipers !!

`Just did a mock of my new 96 4 spot calipers and disc's to be certain that they clear the wheels .
Had to change the bottom ball joint arm to the later type also as the end of the caliper fouled on the ball joint nut .
Calipers cleared no worries...yaaa-hooo !!
Just have to make up a little locating spacer as the disc center hole is 62 mm and the hub is 60 and then it will be alloy 4 spot heaven for me !!
