Grinding calipers
 
Did some work today on the car to get the rear Welds on. I had summit stars on there before so the calipers were already worked to make them fit. Well Welds require a little more grinding than the Summit Stars do. Was a bitch until i used some paint on the calipers to see where they were coming in contact with but well worth the hours of bolting and unbolting the wheels until they cleared.
