Default First-gen F-Body wheel to steering arm/tie rod end clearance???

How much clearance do you guys recommend from the inner wheel lip to the steering arm/tie rod end?

I'm ordering my wheel spacers/adapers tomorrow (hopefully) and I just want to double check on his before I order.

Thanks!

Bump. . .

. . .I ordered my wheel spacers; rears fit great. . .fronts would be fine except for the steering arm.

I'm gonna swap a rear spacer to the front which will put about a quarter inch of space between the rim and the steering arm. . .I'm gonna cycle the suspension between full bump and full droop at lock to lock steering to check for interference, but I wouldn't mind getting some feedback as far what you guys would consider minimum adequate clearance between the steering arm and the rim. . .

Thanks for the help!
