Message	So I went ahead and got myself a set of RPF1's. Very nice wheel, lightweight, however they won't clear my brakes easily! I figured the offset of my bells was not negative enough, so can get new bells made, however, with the disks off, and mounting the caliper the other side of the hub ears to push them back, this is how it looks Very tight fitment, but the seam in the barrell is rubbing slightly. Any thoughts? Or just sell them on and try a different wheel.
