    It fits perfectly in the rear where the spare goes.
    No replies in your build thread, so I’ll post the question here:
    What kind of spacer did you need? Thin enough that the stock studs work okay?

    It was a really thin spacer. I'll measure it and let you know.
    Lots of thread left on the nuts.

    Don, you are welcome to borrow the 17" S197 spare I have around to test fit ... I'm thinking that it would likely clear your Cobra brakes, probably without a spacer. With the bulkier calipers that Ross has, the spacer was needed on the 18" wheel but I think your 2-piston clampers would clear.

    Yeah for sure, cobra caliper's would not need any spacer.
