    Doug’s RCR Jaguar D Type Build.

    If I'm understanding this right, the issue is that the wheel sits too close to the caliper, which is why the small bolts are hitting the caliper with rotation. This is of course ironic as we all purchased our wheels directly from RCR to prevent these types of issues. I know I considered...
