Default CCW drag pack? Brake clearance

I just bought a used set of CCWs.16inch classic drag pack.

I believe they were made for a c5 vette and Im trying to mount them on my 99 Camaro.

The rears fit nice with no clearance issues

The fronts however dont fit so nice.They are rubbing at the hub and caliper ever so slightly.

Any suggestions?

run a small spacer and you probably wont even have to grind the caliper

Went to every auto parts store in town, a few wheel shops, and a performance shop and nobody have any smaller spacers than 5/16.

Ended up having to file the caliper bracket a bit and they fit fine.

Ill et some pics when the weather is nice enough to pull the car out of the garage.

Wheels look nice. Get some bigger pictures so we can really see them.
