Default Parking brake fouling wheel

Hi,
Has anyone else had problems with the parking brake levers fouling on the inside of the rear wheels on their Kirkham and if so, have you found a satisfactory solution?
Initially, the lever rubbed on the inside of the wheel, which has scoured a groove all the way around. By using thinner washers, I was able to get the lever to just clear, but now the spring between the levers rubs on the edge of the disk and there isn't sufficient room to find a happy medium.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Paul
