If the caliper is hitting the rims with new brake pads, you can add spacers to move the wheel further out. Don't go over board with the distance. You want at least a half inch of threads to spin the lug nuts onto.

the caravan doesn't have a large wheel opening, so putting spacers may make tires rub the fender when you turn.
