Racing Hart C2 - Hub Rings / Spacers?
I just bought some C2's from a buddy, but I've got a dilemma. The brake caliper is barely clearing the spokes, so I either have to run a spacer, or grind down the caliper when I get new brake pads. Currently the pads are pretty full (just over 19k miles on them).
Problem is that at highway speeds, I'm getting noticeable/annoying vibration, so I think I'm going to get hub rings. Anyone else running Racing Harts with hub rings? I believe the hub ring I need is 64.1mm inside and 73mm outside.
Also, running a small 5mm spacer would make the hub ring useless, right? So I'll be forced to grind down the caliper anyway.
Here's a crappy pic from my cameraphone.

Hmm, I guess nobody else has had this issue?
I'm going to have a buddy at just tires balance the wheels and see if that's the problem before I go and get hub rings. I'll let you guys know what happens.

hub rings can definately help your vibrations, but i don't know about hte spacers. cccolt used spacers at one point, I think most spacers can't be used with hub rings, but you might check out what h&r makes

Thanks for the responses, guys. My buddy did the balancing at just tires, and I'm still getting the vibration. So I'm ruling that out. Getting the hub rings next and see if that works.
