Wheelspacers,a good idea?

I'm putting together a custom front brake setup using Wilwood 12.19" rotors and billet 6-pot calipers.The design is nearly finalised,BUT the biggest problem is fitting aftermarket wheels.I may have to fit wheelspacers to clear the caliper,not sure yet.If I do are they a good idea?Are they strong enough to handle the abuse?If yes then what make,size etc.etc. Thanks

If you get billet spacers, they'll hold up to the abuse. Several members (redraif, FlyinLow92rs, etc) are running them. A set for the fronts should run you $250-350 US. Salesco, Vette Brakes, and others carry them.
