Re.coupla a Questions



Ok, well at least it's not just me. Damn, I don't have any of those tools, but I do have a dremel and a shitload of grinding wheels... It hasn't done any real damage to the wheel, just a very tiny groove. I have left the car parked though.

Dan,Yah,
I had the trouble.
The secret is a die grinder, a real good high speed rotary bit,patience of a ole man and good air pressure.
Don't drive with the wheels grinding on the calipers. Remove the wheel and locate the spot that the wheel contacts the 
caliper. remove a little metal on the caliper and try the fit.if it rubs take off some more. After you have clearance allow
for temperature expansion. I don't know which caliper that you have but you shold be able to get the necessary clearance
without weakening the caliper.
Be sure and inspect the wheel to be sure you don't have a problem created by the wheel rubbing. Sever gouging can cause a weak spot.
