How much clearance do you currently have around the rotor?
better check the rear drum clearance too.
Remember, you need more than 1/2" clearance (I'd want more) as you are only measuring radial clearance, not the diametrical difference.
You can mash a thick wad of clay, or play dough on the top of the rotor or drum and reinstall the rim, then remove it. Measure the thickness at it's smallest point. probably up on the brake caliper.
