for the sake of the two bolts why not take the rear calliper off and out of the equation,and see if the wheel fits first, you could always bolt the calliper on afterwards......

Yes I've also done that too and it does fit with enough room so I thought left for the caliper,but soon as the caliper comes into play it then shows that there isn't.

I think it's resolved and will know in the morning,as i believe that maybe I havent hammered the bearings home enough so as to make the spacer flush inside the wheel instead of there being a lip which I think is obstructing the caliper.....will let you know

All sorted this morning guys...me being a muppet didn't hammer home the new bearing correctly but now complete hoo ray

Thanks to all those you helped with suggestions
