Glad you got a solution...you don't have any choice but to add air looks to be a PIA..lol
I had a similar experience when I had purchased 18" wheels for winter use. The shop used stick-on weights and the ones stuck to the inboard edge did rub the caliper. This shop does not drive customer vehicles, you drive your own in and out. On this forum I read about issues with some 18" wheel fitments so when they were done, I drove a lap around the shop and could feel and hear something rubbing so I drove right back in the shop door and they were great about it, changed the style of weights on all 4 wheels so future tire rotations would not be an issue.
