Apologies for repeating myself, the previous message did not appear so I tried again. I have reviewed my idea with the car in pieces and it is a non starter.
Andrew:

I would like to fit the later 4.5inch wires to my Mk 1 BMC suspension Turner with Disc brakes. The problem is the bigger wheel fouls the steering arms. Is it safe to put a 12mm spacer between the wire mount and its mounting platform? The inside edge of the wheel will then be in the same place as with the smaller wheel so I would imagine the forces would not be that much greater.
