I just bought a set of JGE Raders for my 65 bug and I am wondering how much to get the front drum snout clearanced so they fit. Also, if I don't go that route, what size spacers are people with JGE Raders running? I have seen 3/8'' all the way up to 1 inch. I don't want more than I need. Any help is most appreciated.

I'm running Original Raders, with the SoCal Imports front discs. I had to use a .250" (1/4 inch) spacer to get everything to clear. so I grabbed some EMPI 5 lug to 4 lug adapters, hogged out the center to clear the snout, and presto- Blanchard ground 1/4 inch spacers......
