Well I'm hoping that I did something wrong here, hopefully someone can give me some feedback. I'm in the middle of building my first wheelset and just completed the rear. The tire I went with was the WTB Vigilante Team Issue which is a 2.3". Upon putting my new rear wheel into my 2012 Stumpy frame I noticed that the tire sits very close to the drive side chainstay. As it is now it looks like it will definitely rub, I can't get a finger in between the tire and chainstay. There is more than enough room on the non-drive side which makes me think that there is a possibility the rim isn't centered on the hub although there seems to be even spacing between the seat stays.
Is anyone else running a 2.3 on the rear of their stumpy? I'll find out soon enough if this is the fault of an error when building the wheel but it's driving me crazy right now as I didn't think a 2.3 out back on the Stumpy would cause an issue. I'm considering as a last resort shaving the outside lugs on the tire down but I really want to avoid that if possible.
