Has anyone ever used washer's as wheel spacers? I have noticed that on my SP500 the new mudlite tires I put on are slightly rubbing the front strut. There is a little tab on the strut tower that holds the bottom of the spring and I noticed that the tab was all shinny. Now I think it only happens when the tire is flexing over large bumps because the tires don't rub when the bike is sitting on a flat surface. It looks like I only need 1/8 to 1/4 to solve my problem. So I was going to try to put one washer on each stud. Now does anyone see any problems with doing this? P.S. I have stoch steel rims not aluminum.
