    I am sure i read 100s of times these wheels fit over 288 brakes well i have gone to fit mine and the balancing weights hit the calliper

    is this expected ?

    i have removed the weights for now as know a mate with a balancer but i dont really want to attach the callipers

    any advice cheers

    Yes this happened to mine had to run bang ons as it was just brushing.

    im sure you could get away with taking a bit of material off the caliper if need be, it wouldnt be much,
    some wheel balancers have an option so that you only need to put the weight on the back also, not sure how good that is though...
