Did you have to angle them so as to clear the brake calipers or can they go into the rim at a right angle & not have to worry about brake caliper clearance?
Anyone else has any experience with this?
Thanks!
They're facing straight out (90 deg / perpendicular to the wheel) and they don't come anywhere near the caliper.

Good deal, thanks for the info!
I would presume our brake calipers ,your 09 & my 11, are mounted the same?
