Front wheel alighnment on GBS Zero

A little advice please.

1\ Can someone advise how close I can run the inside of the wheel/tyre to the front wing bracket on a GBS Zero?

2\ Is it the tyre that has to fall within the outside of the wing for the IVA? I have Team Dynamic wheels that are domed and will still stick out even if the tyre is covered.

Hope that all makes sense!
Thanks

From IVA manual:

14. The upper half of a wheel must not protrude beyond the body plan form
(disregarding tyres, wheel discs, and central wheel securing nuts).

With regards to point 1, my tyres run about 2cm away from the brackets

Point 2, answered above

IVA tester likes the tread covered as the tread blocks have shaft edges would you believe
You can run the supports quite close, tyre narrows a little at speed as diameter grows and only the bottom part bulges with compression

my old tyres ran about 5mm from the arch bracket, never had an issue,









Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at

I’ve spaced the hub with 10mm of washers, which brings the outer edge of the wheel almost level with the outside of the wing. That leaves me with a gap of 5mm between tyre and wing bracket on the inside!

Looks great but I feel it's a bit tight for the IVA!
