Gotcha, that's what I was thinking too. So in other words my front setup is fine, but the back needs work. Thanks for the help!

Try with original Shimano adapters. I have a bike with Shimano adapters and everything is in place. In another bike I'm using a chinese adapter from Aliexpress and I had to put a couple of washers on it to avoid the caliper hitting the rotor.

Well, sorry for my misinformation about the RT-66 being a wide rotor. At least hope you found it useful to learn about narrow and wide rotors

No worries! Any day that Shimano's product line is clarified a little is a good day for me.
