    I have a 2013 STR 675R and have bought a set of wheels from a 2010 STR. The hub is slightly different on the 2010, is there a short cut to making these fit because they catch the rear brake caliper slightly.

    Not sure what else I can add?
    Have looked around on the net and apparently the front wheel is a straight fit and the rear wheel also fits, perfectly on the sprocket side but on the 06-12 wheel the disc rubs the brake carrier. Can't seem to find if there is a simple solution to make it fit, either a spacer or maybe even an 06-12 caliper carrier but would the 13-17 rear brake caliper fit the previous carrier?
    Wanted a quick solution for race tyres and road tyres.

    So you need to push the caliper out. Still a photo would help. Is the caliper slid home and the pads are rubbing on one side or the actual caliper is touching? With a caliper only having two mounts, any deviation from square would have to make the caliper sit squint so, sitting it up on the fork will make it stress on the fork differently. ( I suppose) How many pistons in the caliper?
    I like t552's suggestion.

    Sorry if it was abrupt, but a simple solution to a simple problem.

    Looked everywhere and spoke to several people, compatibility issue so they have been sold.
