Default Will these wheels fit?

I just bought a set. They wont run my car @ the emissions place because of my tire size. I didn't think to check if they would clear calipers brakes.<ul><li><a href="http://www.clarity.net/~paul/images/200TQ20V/front_left_quarter.jpg">Car</a></li></ul>

They fit if you don't have big brakes.

Default the front roller of the 4 wheel dyno has these two bumpers that come out

just in case your car wants to jump left or right. if my car wags enough to tap one it will hit my wheel instead of my tire. Apparently its a large problem. I got pulled over for my expired tags (cant get them without emissions) and the judge himself said he was "having the same problem and trying to get it all figured out but we all have to do it - its the law)

...and they wont do the "two-idle" test that they use for pre '84 vehicles unless the car can't be tested due to factory equipped tires.

I'm around $500 deep in expired tags tickets. $30 if your car is parked $115 if you get pulled over.
