G'day All

Just wanting some opinions on how close you can get your rim to your top control arms

you obviously have to allow for suspension travel , i guess the question is , if it's 5mm and clears is that a safe tolerance ?

I'm not an engineer however I suspect a minimum of 5mm clearance throughout the suspensions travel range and at all steering angles should be fine.
