Wheels don’t fit

So I had the brake upgrade done and now my front wheels don’t fit. He’s saying it’s almost a half inch. This happen to anyone else??

We put a 5/16th spacer on and it clears. There is about an 1/8th of inch of clearance is that ok?

Did you install longer lug bolts? 5/16" may prove too much to ask of stock lug bolts.

1/8" clearance is fine, it's the 5/16" that you should worry about and make sure you have enough thread left over.

I just ordered extended studs from z1 along with the stud installer tool and 10mm hub centric spacers. Better safe than sorry.
