need help, grinding after wheel spacer install.
Just put on some 15mm spacers in the rear and now i'm getting a grinding noise when i slowly turn or take off. In order to re mount the rear brakes I had to add some washers and extended bolts to compensate for the spacers. Does any one know what might be causing this noise? I had used about 7 1/2inch washers to match the 15mm difference, anyone have any recommendations on a better way to do this?
Thanks

And these are 15mm (0.60") thick "spacers", using longer studs, and not "adapters" that bolt to your stock studs and have a new set of studs to mount the wheel?
