I have these wheels in 17x9 with 285/70s and no rubbing. Are you lifted?

This is a rubbing between the caliper and wheel, not tire and bodymount. Your wheels have different offset and backspace then my 16s.

Considering the importance of the brake system and the relatively unimportant consequences of a teeny tiny spacer, I would go with the spacer. Many folks have no problem with grinding on a brake caliper, but I find it to be a really dangerous idea. I don't know how small they make spacers, but a 1/4" would be plenty, I'm sure.

1/4" would be nice. But I didn't think they make wheel spacer that thin.

As far as I know the spacer width will have to be at least the length of the wheel stud.

That would be terrible. If my wheels would stick that far out, it's going to hurt articulation. I saw you edited the text and I echo your concern about not knowing the thickness of the steel in that red area. Was hoping some one has done this or know more of the calipers.
