Hmm, the spacer is a good idea, I'll check.

The wheel is tight enough that it needs two hands and a tough grunt to turn it.
The reasons why I
want to take so much is I'm not sure the caliper mounts are tightening down
properly with the pads
so tight, and I don't like the piston so tight against the bottom of the bore
either. Maybe after I
wear out these pads the rotor will be worn enough to take new pads, but I bet
I'll have to still
take a little bit off.
