I emailed UPC and Tony replied saying 15inch Weld draglite would clear the 287mm no problem. That was a few years ago. Got the brakes now I'm about to chase rims.

 

If buying wheels locally you could mock everything up on a stub axle and take it with you just to be sure...

He is not correct. I trial fitted one and it needs a 5mm spacer to clear the caliper.

Well that is shit. That was 3 years ago I bought the brakes. I don't want to run spacers.
