Caliper clearance

Caliper clearance
Just got a set of 4 pot calipers for my classic to replace 2 pots. I did a trial fit as I have 16" wheels, the wheels fit over the calipers but how much clearance should the caliper have to the spokes on the wheels. When I checked mine the clearance was 0.7mm between them at the smallest point. Is this ok or should the distance be larger, and if so how much clearance should there be. Thanks any help is appreciated.

There you go
Personally I wouldn't run that close a clearance, standard 16"wheels used to offer a couple of mm from memory but 0.7mm, thats a spark plug gap
