Hi, I'm having a issue where when I install my 3kw motor and tighten down the nuts the inner part of the rim rubs of the frame near the dropouts, someone told me to add some more washers to either side to stop the rubbing, what kind of washers will I need looking to buy from ebay preferably and UK seller.
Thanks ...

What you're saying doesn't make sense. The rim can't rub on the drop-outs because it's held away by the spokes. If you have a 26" wheel, the nearest the rim can come to the drop-outs is 13" away.

You need to show us what's rubbing and what arrangement you have on your axle.
