At my wits end here.
Purchased 4 pot brembos for a '11gt brembo package, as well as rotors & pads.
The drives side slapped right together, no clearance issues, etc..... caliper clears the wheel by about 2mm I'd guess...
Passenger side assembled and the wheel has no clearance over the caliper. I'd guess I need 1/4" + spacing. I even went as far as to get & try another rotor just in case. Still a no go ! Am I missing something obvious? Cars a 05 saleen, low miles, no accidents or bent wheels, wheels are 20"s . Drivers side clears, pass side wont ! Advise appreciated

1st pic is drivers side.
2nd pic is pass side with the wheel making contact with the caliper, note the 1/4 gap between wheel & rotor.

Mike
