Default 14"-13" wheels clearing GSR brakes?

Is it possible to run a 14" wheel (eg. HX wheel) or a 13" wheel (eg. VX wheel) on front GSR brakes?

Heard it rubs the caliper. Anyone know what size spacer is needed for it to be put it on?

All thoughts appreciated...

there is almost no way that 13s will fit...not unless you use spacers... but not worth it.... 14s at the very least

I think you might need to shave a little of the caliper to fit under the hx wheels, i am not positive though.

I have done some research on this, because I will eventually do this myself, and from what I have gatherd, you need 14" wheels or 10mm spacers for the 13" wheels to work. I know that the 14's will fit, but dont quote me on the 10mm spacers for the 13's (even though I'm pretty sure it was from a reliable source here on H-T)

14 hx wheels require spacers in the front or shaved caliper...14 steels should fit fine though. 13s will fit the back if you are into drag racing
