Default Front caliper hitting spokes WTF?

Changed out the front tire on the 92 Dyna with dual disc 21" front. Put it back together and the locater bushing at the top of the right caliper is hitting the spokes (not a lot but hitting them all the same). The discs appear to be perfectly straight and the wheel does not seem to have any excessive runout. There is not a lot of clearance between the spokes and the caliper anyway.
Any help would be appreciated.

Check the orientation of the wheel spacers, you may have swapped them by mistake.
