SAGE Front RCA (30mm)+LS400 Calipers+15mm H&R spacer+16" Stock Wheels = NO RUBBING!!!
I slapped on my stockers today to get a safety check.....but also to answer a few PMs from other members who wanted to know if SAGE front RCAs (30mm) will NOT rub the inner wheel barrels of the stock 16" wheels....the answer is NO rubbing....
I also have LS400 front calipers with LS400 size rotors....I used 15mm H&R spacers....as you can see....also NO rubbing issues... ....there's like a 4mm gap from the top of the LS400 caliper to the inner wheel barrel (my wheel balance weights is 2mm thick...so now I only got 2mm left ). Also, there's about 3mm from the wheel spokes to the face of the LS400 caliper.
LS400 Calipers and inner barrel with wheel weights...barely clears...
LS400 Calipers and 16" Stock OEM wheel spokes...also clears...
I hope this helps everyone....esp those who are running 16" stockers...that SAGE RCAs are possible.
And yes...I did drive on it...to a Chevron station for the safety check and some gas...again...no problems.
