There was a thread some time back where I showed how to clearance the inner to match my old 356 version EMPI 5's. I can't remember what the thread title was but had EMPI 5's and clearancing in the wording, I think.

Now i have received my original empis.
They are "early" style 5-spokes.
Today i fit those to my CSP Front Disc Brakes.
have a look!
*No spacers! just bolt on!!!
Needs only original UNF inserting nuts!
Original inserting nuts. UNF 1/2 (20")
Wrong inserting nuts, too high!

The "wheel bolt mounting area" in the set I had was straight/flat. Has that "cone" (don't know the correct English term) been done afterwards?
I had to use lug nuts like these and re-tighten them a lot
