Shaving Calipers for 15" rims.

I know you have to shave the calipers to fit 15" rims. i dont really plan on doing this but am curious as to how you "shave" the calipers. and does it affect the integrity of the caliper when you shave it?

thanks

You simply file the edges off until the wheel fits. And yes, to some degree it will affect the rigidity of the caliper. How much is too much, well....
