Default Wheel Spacers

I have upgraded my front brakes using a StopTech Big Brake Kit. As half expected the wheel fouls the face of the caliper when on the hub.

I have a Year 2000 UK Turbo 2000, and using Prodrive 17" * 7" wheels (Anthracite, 100mm PCD).

Assume I will need some form of wheel spacer - is there anyone doing/done this and can advise?

Looks like I will need only a few mm to clear caliper face, and allow for heat.

I use the car 90% for track days, hence upgrade.

yes you need spacers and maybe you will need to change the wheels studs for longer ones or change the wheels to 18s
