Hi guys, my fantastic Fluidyne radiator sprung a leak today so whilst pulling that out, I also got a front wheel off.

The total width of the rim is 303mm so it's basically exactly 12" overall. Hence it's an 11" wheel measured to the bead edge.

Anyway 303 divided by 2 gives me exact centre of wheel so 151.mm is centre line.

From total outside edge at the rear to the mounting flange face my wheels are 163mm so I have a positive backspacing of just 11.5mm!

I also measured the spacers that I'm running to push the wheels out properly into the wheel arches and they are 35mm.

Given the current combination, the centre of my wheel is positioned 46.5mm outboard of the wheel mounting flange face with the spacer in place and 11.5mm outboard of the flange face with no spacer.

How does this compare to you other blokes running big wheels up front?
