Yea... You're lucky then. Sorry for the pic overload but, this is what my situation looked like last year after The April 11th Hail Storm...

Holy crap, I'm sorry that happened to you.

Hopefully everything is better now?

All is good now. We were out of that house for 10 months. The wife and I decided to just sell it. Lots of good memories in that house but ten months of hassling with contractors and insurance has a way of making you not want to move back in.

as long as it clears, that's good news.

is it about the same amount of clearance as stock? the stock clearance is a little scary lol, seems to be about 1.5mm

edit: ohhhh i see now, the clearance of the spokes seems fine, but the actual wheel is pretty darn close to the caliper...

There's no rubbing or grinding as far as I can see, but it's still a little worrying, there's about 3mm from the caliper to the inside wall of the wheels. Hopefully the calipers don't expand too much at the track

about 1mm, its terrifying. I'm going to get the wheels rebalanced tomorrow to see if they can be moved. If not, I'll swap the front and rear wheels on that side since there is way more room with the rear calipers.
