Turns out this was a dumb question. I will correct myself with info I learned in another thread for the benefit of anyone reading this thread who doesn't know this.

Offset has nothing to do with brake clearance. Brake clearance is simply a function of wheel design. If you have a wheel that doesn't clear your brake calipers, adding a spacer will always increase brake clearance.

Having said that, here's a question....
Someone told me adding spacers can cause wheel bearing failure. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
