Grinding front calipers

Ok guys, I have used the search button but did not find very much info. Does anyone have a how-to or even some pictures for grinding down the front caliper. I have found alot on the rear but not that much for the front. I am fitting 15" bogarts up front.

Any info on how much to grind down would be greatly appreciated

Basically you will see some casting ribs on them. You just have to grind them off; not near as much as the rears.

That is about it, and you will need some wheel spacers.

I didn't have to use wheel spacer with mine???


I've got 15x5 Drag Star's and it was just grind the casting ridges down a little bit and they fit right on perfect.
