Thank you. Sorry, not to arguing, but just trying to understand.

Isn't backspace the distance between the mounting plate and the inner lip of the wheel? That would only determine if the wheel will clear the suspension parts. Correct?

Wouldn't I want the measurement from the mounting plate to the inner edge of the spoke to see if the break will fit there? Or is the answer not that simple?

I guess I am trying to avoid the error part.
