I don't recall saying anything about _radial_ clearance, but since you asked...

The inside wheel diameter actually tapers slightly inwards (from
outside to inside).

The reason I put the spacers on was to create more clearance (axial)
to reduce the possibility of having rocks, sand, mud, etc. ruin the
surface of the calipers. I've seen it happen and others here have
reported similarly.
