custom fork

i ordered this custom fork and it came in today and i put a pro wheel in to test it and its too wide to even spin. im getting the proto 110m metalcores and i doubt those are gonna spin if the pro wheel doesnt. is there any way i can like stretch them apart a little bit or something to make a proto fit?????

Wait..? its to WIDE to even spin? Im not really sure what your even saying. Try to elaborate a little more. Are you saying when you put your wheel in the forks, the forks are to TIGHT around the wheel, so the wheel wont spin freely?..?

Are you riding an Old A headtube on a New pro deck? Cause this happened to me with a stock fork. And if this fork has no offset than i can see what he saying. All i did was remove that little plate in the front of the foldy and it worked fine.

file the fork down a little.. cuz if u try to bend them it may make them last not as long.

how much would i have to file off like an mm or two? and i dont know how you would fit a grinder inside that part of the fork so do i have to use a hand file??
 
hokay. oh and 1 more question these are threadless and im getting a compression system so im pretty sure i need a headset but i dont know which ones on dans comp are threadless so could somebody just send me a link to a head set that will definetly work. lol. sorry im a noob. oh and not one thats like a bazillion dollars like under 40.
