Disc brake backing plate rubbing on front wheel, are some backing plates different? I took off old D44 w/ chevy disc and put on new (craigslist deal) D44 with disc (I believe from WH) and now my 15" wheels rub, just a little. Also had to pull inner wheel weights to clear Clydesdale steering.

Should I file backing plates? Swap em for my old ones? Get new wheels - everything is so close now?

Wheels are 25+ years old 15x10 aluminum outlaw looking wheel
