I bought this fork used , It was a perfect match for my bike . But when i was putting the wheel, The hub ( i think ) was too small for the fork. My wheel wiggles a little bit and it sounds like the brake disk is rubbing against something but i can’t find the source of it. Reddit please help me ! I can’t spend another 200$ on a wheel.

1. is the new fork boost spacing? (110mm)
2. is your hub non boost spacing? (100mm)
How wide is the wheel end cap to end cap? You might have a non boost 100mm wheel and a 110mm spaced boost fork
Front hubs come in 100mm standard and 110mm boost. Maybe you have a 100mm hub in a 110 fork? If the wheel slides back and forth on the axle about 10mm, that is your problem. Someone probably makes a couple of 5mm spacers that may work, but the caliper may not move far enough over for your disc if you use them.
You need [this](https://www.jensonusa.com/Problem-Solvers-Booster-Adaptor-Kit-Front-15X100mm-to-15X110mm-Conversion?loc=usa&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAo8ahOzZsKxZeTU33I-_WxfWI09Z8&gclid=Cj0KCQiA1p28BhCBARIsADP9HrMjPxMt3fny34sGGHAuQmevo38w0IW0y37hBTnmF2eBPNT17D5hdB4aAjzREALw_wcB)
On the crown of the fork (the thing that connects the stanchions to your bike), towards you (when you stay on the saddle) there’s an serial number for the fork. [You have here the link to their official site and you have also pictures if i was too vague referring the location of the sn](https://tech.ridefox.com/register). Good luck
100mm hub in a boost (110mm O.L.D.) fork.
Sell the fork or get a new wheel.
