Rear Wilwood Brake Alignment
I have the front wilwood kit adjusted and installed perfectly. With the front caliper mount you're able to use provided shims to get the caliper and brake pads adjusted to the edge of the rotor perfectly. That way you don't have the brake pads overhanging the edge of the rotor.
However, with the rear kit you're limited to the mounting holes on the hub, which obviously aren't adjustable. Both sides have the brake pads hanging outside the rotor by 1/8". The performance won't be noticeably impacted, but leaving the brake pads with a high spot like that will end up crumbling the pads on the outside edge. The only way I can think to get the pads to sit closer to the center is to hog the mounting holes out, which would potentially allow the calipers to move. Not something I'd like to compromise.
Ideas?
