another wheel fitment question

I bought a set of rear BBS for the track

I am currently running 18"Turbo Twist wheels 11" with 55mm offset.

The BBS are 18", 10"wide, 65mm offset.

I am running 2" spacers. I fitted the BBS and they seem to be a little bit too close to the spring plate adjust nut.

My question is what is the minimum recommended distance between this nut and the lip of the wheel??

Thanks

I'd just monitor it and see if it rubs. Check it on the street first and then when you take it on the track, just check it after the first hard lap and then occationally after that.

The wheel trailing arm relationship is fiixed, so you only need to allow for tire and arm flex.
