*URGENT* Gen 6 BBK HELP!! * URGENT *
I thought the 17" SE rims were supposed to fit but the distance between the rotor and rims is minimal (I can barely put 1 finger + a pinky in between). Is this safe for winter driving? No chance the rotor and rim may somehow touch?

If you tighten the bolts and the wheels turn and go around completely, you're good.

Ops. I meant the caliper not rotor.

So the rim and rotor being so close won't negatively affect brakes?
